HUNTSMAN CANCER INSTITUTE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF UTAH

UTAH ARTISTSAND FRIENDS OF UTAH

SELF-GUIDED ART TOUR

When developing plans for Huntsman Cancer Institute, Jon and Karen Huntsman saw art as an important part of their vision—“to make sure the environment would be as healing as the medicine.”

Today, Huntsman Cancer Institute is home to what amounts to a mid-sized museum of original paintings, sculpture, and pottery—a collection of approximately 2,500 pieces.

Facing a health challenge often involves far more than managing physical symptoms. Many people find they have strong thoughts or feelings they are not sure how to cope with or express. For some people, it is a period of deep inward reflection, perhaps with a sense of grief or loss. For others, it is a moment when the desire to be engaged with life grows stronger and they seek to take in the beauty of the world.

What does art have to do with health and well-being? Art centers the patient in the real world…the world that exists outside the walls of the hospital. They are no longer just an illness, they are a valued individual.

Many studies have shown the therapeutic benefits of art:

• Lowering stress and anxiety• Improving symptoms of depression• Relieving the sense of pain and distress, which leads

to less need for pain medications• Increasing the efficacy of medical treatments• Lowering blood pressure• Providing a more positive attitude and outlook

Huntsman Cancer Foundation and the Huntsman Fine Art Advisory Board would like to express appreciation to our many generous art donors for their compassionate support of our goal to provide comprehensive health care to those currently facing significant struggles.

ART DOES NOT CURE, IT HEALS.
