We offer drop-in professional services and information, as well as tea, bannock, and friendship. We look forward to you stopping by! About Arts in Medicine Researchers are finding that creative expression helps patients and family members confront the many complex feelings that come with a diagnosis of cancer. Anxiety, fear of the unknown, vulnerability and the feeling that the situation is beyond one s control are some of the emotions cancer patients can experience during diagnosis and treatment. Since 1996, Arts in Medicine has helped hundreds of cancer patients and their family members move more easily through cancer. Every Child is an Artist. The problem is how we remain an artist once we grow up.
