Healing Arts Gallery
About the Gallery
Art heals. Community connects. Join us at MCH.
The Monadnock Region has a rich and vibrant history of support for the Arts. Here at Monadnock Community Hospital, we are in a unique position to help connect the world of healing and the world of art. Our intent is to host a venue for artists to exhibit in varied mediums, resulting in a visual experience which promotes the proven healing and restorative benefits of beautiful artwork. Our vision is to eventually develop a permanent art collection for the hospital which will be enjoyed for generations by patients and visitors to our campus.
Our Healing Arts Committee is comprised of individuals representing a strong interest in the Healing Arts initiative and has convened to create and develop all aspects of the MCH Healing Arts Gallery as an established and vital venue going forward. The gallery holds three shows per year displaying work from all local artists.
We hope you enjoy the experience of art, here at MCH as much as we have enjoyed helping make it available for you. For more information, please call Katharyn Ernst at 603-924-4682 or email Katharyn.Ernst@MCHMail.org.

Wendy Parker of the Healing Art Gallery Committee says, “the art gallery creates a portal that connects people to emotions, and has the power to transport its audience to places and emotions that the viewer may not be able to physically or emotionally access.” Feeling these emotions is the mission of this gallery and a part of the healing the gallery provides.”
