Collaborator
Radical Connections is a non-profit corporation, working at the intersection of arts and health. Our programs and activities humanize healthcare and improve wellbeing for people in care through music, poetry, visual arts, and theatre. We define “people in care” as patients in hospitals, residents in long-term care and retirement homes, and people receiving assistance for their healthcare needs in their homes.
​
Wellness, for all, involves the opportunity to play, create and make choices. People in care need those same opportunities. Participation in the arts brings joy and connection; it demonstrates that people receiving care are much more than their medical conditions. Elder care needs radical transformation. With our help, elders and everyone in healthcare can share their wisdom and enjoy arts and culture. People experiencing mental or physical distress should be surrounded by healing environments. We bring meaningful arts connections into care settings.
