Barrow Neurological Institute Parkinson's Patients Art Exhibit at Creighton University in Phoenix

Beginning July 30, the Muhammad Ali Parkinson Center (MAPC) at Barrow Neurological Institute and Creighton University will open a new art exhibit at Creighton’s health sciences campus in midtown Phoenix, featuring original artwork created by individuals living with Parkinson’s disease and their care partners. The juried exhibit explores the daily experiences, emotions and resilience of those affected by Parkinson’s, expressed through visual art. It is also bilingual. All pieces will include descriptions in both English and Spanish. Many of the works were created as part of MAPC Expressive Arts Program, an initiative supported by the Barrow Neurological Foundation. The program uses painting and other art forms as therapeutic tools to reduce stress and promote well-being for patients and care partners alike. The exhibit is free and open to the public through early October. Creighton and Barrow are proud to be collaborating in innovative ways to advance healthcare, research, medical education and community throughout the Phoenix area. Location: Creighton University Health Sciences Campus – Phoenix First Floor Rotating Art Gallery 3100 N. Central Ave.
