Art can play a powerful role in healing environments, such as hospitals, by reducing stress, promoting relaxation, and offering emotional support for patients and their families. By encouraging artists to share pieces that reflect their inner journeys, Sacred Threads supports creative expression as a therapeutic process, helping artists process life’s challenges and find peace. Viewers experience these powerful narratives visually, fostering empathy, introspection, and a shared sense of healing through art’s transformative power. This exchange cultivates a sense of community and mutual support, where art becomes a healing tool that uplifts all involved.
Textile Talks features weekly presentations and panel discussions from the International Quilt Museum, Quilt Alliance, Studio Art Quilt Associates, and Surface Design Association. The programs are held online at 2 p.m. Eastern (11 a.m. Pacific) each Wednesday.
