Bree, That’s a wonderful idea, and if the hospice doesn’t already have an art program, consider starting one yourself! Include other art forms in addition to fine art, such as music therapy. My mother benefited from music therapy when she was in hospice. Also read Drawing Funny Pictures to Help Kids Heal to get ideas on how you can help patients of all ages.

You mentioned that it promotes better connection and hope. My parents are planning to find hospice care for your granny. It’s a thing that my granny loves the idea. I will advise looking for hospice care that promotes creativity and hopes through physical and motivational activities to improve the quality of my granny’s stay in the care center.
