Episode 6 Show Notes

The Art for Healing Episode

Crazy art news...Crazy Paris Art Work

Interview with Earl Pinchuk.
The Bill Charad Gallery was the first gallery done by Art for Healing
Maimonides Geriatrics Centre in Cote St-Luc has a gallery now and 7 to go up in the next few months.
The Power of Art is their theme
Kevin talks about blue food.
Now he's talking about pink locker rooms!
Back to art...
See pictures of the Matisse corridor in the Montreal Children's Hospital here as well as the other projects they have done.
Art for Healing have gotten some press from The Montreal Gazette and an article by Heather Solomon of Canadian Jewish News. Here are those articles.
If an artist wants to donate, contact Earl Pinchuk or Gary Blair at info@artforhealingfoundation.org or (514) 846-3811.

Outside the Artist's Studio helps local artist Morry Marcovitch get noticed through Art for Healing. Earl loves the work & so do the hospital he showed his self published book "I had to paint." It seems likely that a hospital will host Morry's work and bio, which will put him on the path to get recognition for his fine work.

NEWS: We are sad to report that Morry passed away September 7th, 2006. We hope his work will allow us all to remember him. Our condolences to the family.

Thanks for listening. For comments, suggestions and to have us answer your questions on the show, contact us at:
