title: You don't have to be an artist. Foundation for Hospital Art provides projects that work.
abstract: Wolfson's Children's Hospital in Jacksonville, Fla., and Cardinal Glennon Children's Hospital in St. Louis, were participants in PaintFest, a program by the Foundation for Hospital Art to provide colorful, soothing artwork for hospitals. More than 500 hospitals have participated since the Foundation began in 1984. Seasoned veterans express amazement at the overwhelming reaction by news media.
