MISERICORDIA
Heart Studios
The Art Program began in 1985 as a way to provide work opportunities for Misericordia residents. The Coleman Foundation funded the first project with Fannie May Candies. Residents were tasked with creating miniature ceramic replicas of the famous white baskets that contained Fannie May delectable chocolate. The project revealed wonderful talent among our adults, and it led to a new and exciting chapter in Misericordia history. Today the “Heart Studios” are comprised of nine art programs, each one focusing on a different skill, medium or challenge. Each program is led by an art instructor, support staff and volunteers who work side by side with resident artists in collaborative effort to create the artwork seen at this event
