Art and Spirituality Center - Dignity Health - Mercy Hospital Downtown

Discover healing at The Art & Spirituality Center, in the former chapel next to Mercy Hospital Downtown. We use creative expression—art, movement, writing—to foster well-being, reducing anxiety and pain for physical, mental and emotional recovery. Our "Art for Healing" workshops offer respite for the community.

In the hospital, our "Art Cart" brings therapeutic engagement, "Acoustic Remedies" offers live music for enhanced recovery and "Threshold Choir" provides soothing songs. This program cultivates peace, comfort and healing for all.
