Arts in Healthcare

Art at the Bedside

An exciting program for patients. Watch for volunteers visiting the unit, or call Volunteer Services at 204-237-2442 for more information.

Artists in Healthcare Manitoba

In 2001 St. Boniface was the first hospital in Manitoba to welcome Artists in Healthcare Manitoba and its artistic programs — varying from visual artists to musicians — on its units. A not-for-profit organization, AIHM was created to enhance patient, family and staff wellness through the introduction of the creative arts in health care. These musical performances throughout the hospital are made possible thanks to the ongoing support of Artists in Healthcare Manitoba. If you would like a musician to perform on the unit where your loved one is a patient, please contact Volunteer Services at 204-237-2442.

Buhler Gallery

When St. Boniface Hospital opened the Buhler Gallery in 2007, it was the culmination of a dream that was championed by staff, patients and volunteers for a number of years to find space within our walls where people could retreat for a time from the often stark and challenging realities that come with life in hospital. Take the opportunity to visit its exhibitions.
