In early 2006, TIffany Chantel donated a large,
original painting to Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU), Center
for Women's Health, to support its mission of linking healing
with the visual arts.
Backed by much research, it's been known for
some time that taking in art can have a meditative, even healing
effect on a person. As a pioneer in medical breakthroughs and
cutting edge research, OHSU is one of a handful of health universities and healing centers
to combine the power of art with healing. The art collection at
OHSU houses ecclectic, museum-quality works laced throughout its
hallways and gallery spaces.
Chantel's donation, the painting called "Reverence,"
is now part of the OHSU art collection and hangs in the Center
for Women's Health, Peter
O. Kohler Pavilion. This brand-new, state-of-the-art building
-- also the landing pad for the OHSU Tram -- features artwork by
well-known regional and national artists.
Making this donation to OHSU sparked Tiffany's
desire to apply her artistic talent to helping those in need.
She has since set up her "Art for Healing™"
program, which allows any gallery or invidividual exhibiting or
purchasing Tiffany Chantel art to donate 5% of their commission
or purchase price to the OHSU Center for Women's Health. This
creates a perennial "win-win" alliance between art enthusiasts,
art distributors and the science and energy of healing.
Still in its infancy, the Art for Healing™ program has already earned the Center for Women's Health commission
donations from Tiffany Chantel art sales at Tea Chai Te. And,
sooon others will follow.
