AltaMed Art Collection

The arts have always been an integral part of our holistic 
approach to community health care, as reflected in
our belief in the power of art to heal bodies, souls, and
 communities. This is why all of our clinics feature art
 from our esteemed collection. We believe that art plays
 a major role in our society. As we have seen many of our 
communities suffer from political tensions, the pandemic,
 and racial inequities, people often turn to art as a way
to express grief, connect with others, and look for hope.
Art provides creative inspiration and beauty, it promotes 
conversation and imagination, it connects us to our
 cultures and backgrounds, and it brings important issues 
to the public.
