About Intensive Creative Artists in Residence (Intensive CAIR)
Intensive CAIR provides quality creative arts workshops in the hospital setting for children and young adults suffering from chronic and life-threatening conditions. In addition, Intensive CAIR encourages siblings and other family members to participate in the workshops; fostering family-centered care and support.
Intensive CAIR workshop leaders are professional working artists that are trained to work with the pediatric population in the hospital setting. The Intensive CAIR workshops enable individuals to engage in creative expression while confined to the hospital. Collaborative creative arts activities serve to reduce stress and anxiety, decrease attention to pain and normalize the hospital experience for the young patients and their families.
