SUNNYBROOK HEALTH SCIENCES CENTRE

Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre operates an arts program that integrates creative activities into patient care and hospital spaces across its Toronto campus. The organization uses visual arts, music, performance, and other creative practices to support healing, reduce stress, and improve quality of life for patients, families, and staff. The program includes exhibitions featuring patient and community artwork, live musical performances in hospital corridors and patient rooms, and opportunities for individuals receiving care to participate in creative workshops. By embedding arts throughout the hospital environment, Sunnybrook recognizes that cultural and creative experiences contribute to physical and mental wellbeing during medical treatment and recovery.
