In 2021, we installed 39 artworks at the Mario & Nick Cortellucci Hospice Palliative Care Centre of Excellence in Vaughan (@hospicevaughan). This installation was possible during pandemic constraints because we were able to place all artworks in this newly constructed facility before patients took up residence.

Throughout the pandemic, we have continued to gather artwork donations and to plan future installations, when we are able to safely return to the settings

We were recently invited to choose from Barbara Caruso’s collection for Artworks for Cancer. This is just one of the pieces we chose and we can’t wait to hang it at our next installation. Photographed with the artwork is Catherine Stevenson, Dr. Michael Weinberg, Suzan Yates

BARBARA CARUSO (1937 - 2009) was a Canadian artist, author, teacher and independent thinker. She was born in Kincardine, Ontario, and lived and worked in Toronto until 1985 when she moved to Paris, Ontario with her husband, poet Nelson Ball. Barbara and Nelson’s home and workspace has been documented in a film (http://bit.ly/BallCaruso) by Catherine Stevenson and their papers have been donated to McMaster University.
