The free program is available to patients expecting a child or with young children at three NYC Health + Hospitals facilities

The artists will design the murals in collaboration with patients, staff, and neighborhood residents, followed by community “paint parties” to create the mural

The award will support arts programs serving healthcare staff, patients, and communities in patient care sites across the city

NYC Health + Hospitals Community Mural Project is the country’s largest public hospital mural program since the Works Progress Administration (WPA) mural program of the 1930s
