For more than a quarter of a century, Vital Arts has been dispelling the notion that hospitals are dreary places, filled with drab waiting areas and soulless treatment rooms. As the organisation’s Director Catsou Roberts explains , these are “key municipal spaces that form part of the civic complex and, like schools, towns halls, libraries and public museums, are meant to welcome and serve the community.” To that end, Vital Arts is on a mission to ensure that good art and design is utilised to enhance the clinical experience and create a harmonious and cohesive atmosphere throughout hospitals.
