CALLING ALL ARTISTS OF ALL KINDS !!

Brookdale Hospice is looking for your gifted talent as an artists to assist in telling a hospice patients story! Their story can be portrayed by a painted or drawn portrait, arts and crafts, making clay necklaces of their thumbprints, or even creating a song! The list of possibilities is endless and we encourage you to utilize your creativity skills!
