Our Artists

The Waterford Healing Arts Artist Panel is made up of professional artists from a range of artforms, who are trained to work in healthcare settings and whose skill, talent and experience, along with a high level of interpersonal skills, ensure the delivery of arts participation programmes of the highest quality.  Each artist works to our Code of Practice and has access to training, support, resources, networking and mentoring opportunities.  All of our artists are engaged on a freelance basis and are encouraged to maintain their own professional practice, in addition to their work with us.
