OUR HEARTS GROW WILD: Sowing Seeds through Art, Poetry and Community
Together with artist Rashmi Talpade, children, their families and the Yale New Haven Children's Hospital community created four photo collage landscape panels that chronicle the four seasons.  Ms. Talpade's collage residency was a component of OUR HEARTS GROW WILD: Sowing Seeds through Art, Poetry and Community, a 2018 initiative to use the arts to reflect on our connections to nature and each other.

Arts for Healing fosters resiliency in youth and families through therapeutic interventions and creative arts experiences that improve coping with their healthcare journey.

Our Hearts Grow Wild was supported in part by:
LEGO Community Fund, U. S.
enCourage Kids Foundation
Joy in Childhood Foundation
State of CT Office of the Arts
