Through the generous support of the Nursing Wellness Award, Snow City Arts launched Art Breaks in January of 2023. Art Breaks were specifically designed for nurses to be able to decompress, build community, engage with their creativity, and ultimately increase their overall wellness during their work day. Snow City Arts’ Teaching Artists facilitated hour-long tactile and wellness focused art making workshops rooted in visual arts, creative writing, and music.
