For Love & Art

For Love & Art For Love & Art stimulates art appreciation, while empowering caregivers to love people in creative and transformative ways. And how she treasured them!

We showcase and discuss masterpieces from our partner museums to delight, astonish, intrigue, and comfort folks who need it most. For Love and Art Project:
Bringing the Art Experience to Those with Limited Mobility!

“In service of community, sparkling opportunities surprisingly arise.”

As a hospice volunteer, I challenged Miss Billie to regain enough strength in her failing limbs to allow us to visit the city museum. Loving art as much as she did, she gave it her best effort, yet could not surmount the toll of her years. So, like the mountain coming to the prophet, I began bringing pieces of the museum, gift shop postcards, to Miss Billie. Their power and beauty created a blessed respite from worldly trials and tribulations and celebration ensued! Art has power that flows beyond mere understanding. Art enlivens and nourishes, stimulates and sustains-indeed, some call it food for the soul. Our museums simultaneously protect, display, explain, and share these gems with a grateful public. Still, there are those individuals who have the desire but lack the mobility to visit our cultural repositories. Designed to work in harmony with museum outreach programs, community charities, and qualifying healthcare facilities, For Love & Art delivers the Art Experience to them. Consistent with their mission of community service, our partner museums have generously provided imagery of their popular works, with apt commentary. These vibrant images displayed in ArtBooks are then donated to area hospices, hospitals, Senior Living Communities, VA Medical Centers, and similar venues. Caregiver volunteers share the masterpieces of these great museums with their residents sparking conversation, reflection, recollection and celebration. Philanthropic organizations and individuals collaborate in our mission by endowing ArtBooks to worthy facilities in their communities. I invite you to take action now, help fulfill the project in your community and heighten the quality of life for hundreds of individuals who otherwise would not be able to share in the Art Experience... For Love & Art.

St. Joseph Day for For Love & Art!

"Bebo" won the "Best in Show" for the energetic seniors at Joseph's Residence for Seniors in Oak Cliff, and "Dogwoods in a Vase" stole the top honors at CHRISTUS St. Joseph Village - Coppell.

Which would you choose?

Art engagement programs like our "Celebrating the Art Experience" significantly boost quality of life, enhance well-being, and inhibits cognitive decline. And they're so much fun!

Again, we offer our thanks to Heritage Auctions for their permission to use this imagery in our ongoing mission of arts engagement.

To celebrate art is to celebrate LIFE!

For Love & Art took everyone on a break from cataclysmic storms and earthly turmoils to "Celebrate the Art Experience" at Edgemere Senior Living while visiting The Clark and inhaling great European Impressionists and their American contemporaries.

So many Monets, Pissarros, Degas, Cassetts, Renoirs--this fabulous museum, sourced by the Singer Sewing Machine fortune in the persons of Sterling and Francine Clark, is certainly worth a visit when visiting New England.

This George Inness took "Best in Show" honors with stiff competition.

Inness, from New Jersey, strove to portray man and nature in perfect harmony. Did he accomplish this here?

I had the thrill of bidding $200,000 on an Inness at auction in Dallas. Luckily, someone bid more....

By the way, Inness liked this painting so much he kept it for himself. His son claimed it was his favorite!

"That looks just like my dear Daddy when he was a little boy," exclaimed Maxine, a resident at Senior Care in Collin County. "He fought in that Great War, WWII, and raised us kids to be kind and respect people. I talk to him as I walk by his portrait on my dresser every day."

Many of her fellow residents nodded in assent as they remember their loved ones who served our great country.

You sure can learn a lot about people when they share the Art Experience. And that's the point. Knowing people, Loving people, Honoring people, while using art to trigger the very best of their lives.

This fine work can be found at Amon Carter Museum of American Art, where the For Love & Art project all began back in 2010. We sure are grateful for their mentorship...and so is Maxine!
