We’re delighted to announce that a poetry anthology, edited by our Artists on the Wards Literary Artist Shirley Serviss, is now available for sale on our website and in the Friends Gift Shop.
Celebrating the 20th Anniversary of the Artists on the Wards Program, Revealed: The hospital experience from all sides is a collection of some of Shirley’s favourite poems, from the numerous annual poetry contests she’s held.
“Some of the poems are very positive; some not so much. Some may elicit tears. I think they provide an accurate reflection of what happens inside these walls and honour the dedication and humanity of the caregivers and the experience and feelings of the patients.” – from the introduction of Revealed, written by Shirley Serviss.
All proceeds from the book will go towards our Arts in Healthcare programming for healthcare workers and patients.
