Go on a Site Visit

Arts In Medicine offers a three-day site visit that provides an opportunity to be fully immersed in the program. Visitors will work with each of the artists in residence, and spend time doing hands on activities with patients. One on one discussions with program administrators will help to clarify the management and financing of such a program. For some, this “see it to believe it” experience has been the catalyst for beginning their own programs.

The cost is $500 for three days and up to three visitors (travel, food and lodging not included). For details about the site visit, contact the Arts in Medicine administrative office at 352.265.0151.

Consult with an Artist in Residence

Each of our Artists in Residence is available for a consult in their respective discipline. Dance, Drama, Music, Writing and Visual Art consults are comprised of hands-on workshops and program descriptions. These sessions typically last 3 to 5 hours and cost $100.00 per hour plus travel and materials. Contact the artists directly through our "Who's Who" web page to discuss your institution's needs.
