Art Prize winners create art for Helen DeVos Children's Hospital

Chicago-based ArtPrize winners, Tracy VanDuinen and Todd Osborne, are using art to make the lobby of the new Helen DeVos Children's Hospital a special place for healing. The artists are using art produced by kids at art-making workshops held at LaFontsee Galleries to create a large wall mosaic, composed with colored tiles and mirrors, depicting childhood scenes.

"We are excited to have these wonderful artists helping to guide the creation of art in the new building," said Bob Connors, MD, president, Helen DeVos Children's Hospital. "Art in the lobby will make it a special place for children and set the stage for an entire experience of healing throughout the hospital."

With nearly $103 million in generous community support, the new hospital will be 14 floors, 444,000 square feet and 206 beds. To learn more about the new hospital, visit their website.
