Art Is Good Therapy - 'Under the Sea'
TAGG
has been commissioned by Shenandoah Memorial Hospital
to design and paint a mural for its Pediatric Therapy Room. Children
coming to Valley Health Rehabilitation Services at the hospital will
delight in the “Under the Sea” theme.
“This is a wonderful joint effort and a privilege for our
artists
to create something, not only with aesthetic value, but also fun for
the young patients who are coming to rehab for therapy,”
states
Kay Ely-Pierce, coordinator for the project.
The therapists believed that creating a space that was inviting,
interesting and soothing for the children would enhance the therapeutic
benefits of their therapy. A whimsical
mural full of sea creatures, fish, and divers was heartily approved by
the Rehab Department.
“The artists had a wonderful intuition about what we were
after,
something both calming, but stimulating in a positive way,”
said
Brigetta Stewart, O.T., “The children will love coming to
this
new magical place!”
