Imagine having an illness or physical limitation that prevents you from attending live music, theatre and dance performances. ArtsWay is a non-profit organization that gives the sick and the elderly a front row seat to professional arts performances.
“I really love when they bring the concerts here” says Barbara Curmi, care-home resident.
ArtsWay’s principal goal is to respond to the well-understood need for arts in healthcare. In 2006 Vancouver Foundation provided a grant which supported the Health Arts Society's efforts to securely establish ArtsWay and expand its reach across BC.
