The Arts in Medicine Program at the University of Miami

The Arts in Medicine Program at the University of Miami integrates creative arts—such as visual arts, music, and performance—into healthcare settings to enhance patient well-being, promote healing, and support emotional expression. It involves collaborations between healthcare providers, artists, and patients to create therapeutic experiences that address emotional, psychological, and physical needs. The program aims to foster a holistic approach to healthcare, recognizing the value of art as a complement to medical treatment, and to improve the overall patient experience by reducing stress and encouraging personal expression.
