Hallways of Hope
The Hallways of Hope project began at Bruyère Health’s Centretown site on a unit that is home to patients with complex medical needs, many of whom require ventilator support, and have limited mobility. Working alongside local artist Christopher Griffin, patients participated in drawing and creative workshops that gave life to vivid large-scale paintings.
