Mission

Arts For Life is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting pediatric patients and families through arts education and engagement. By providing educational arts programs we enrich patients lives, nurture their minds and spirits, and encourage positive healthcare experiences for children and their families.

Arts For Lifes offerings include in-person art and music programs - inpatient bedside studios, clinic waiting room art tables, patient- and family- centered special events and support groups - as well as our Heartbeat Sessions, a partnership with local professional musicians, and Artivity art kits, created and developed especially for our hospital communities.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
