Health Arts Society of Alberta

Thank you to the Edmonton Community Foundation for this lovely blog post about our digital programs. We are so grateful to have the grant that has provided us with tablets of concerts to share with Albertans in care who do not have access to wifi. Thank you for helping us bring music to those who need it most. https://www.ecfoundation.org/blog/caring-concerts/

Happy New Year to all! Today we celebrate our 15th anniversary. Thanks to the inspiration of David Lemon, who founded Health Arts Society on this day in 2006..., we have had the privilege to present 15 years of professional music performances for our elders living in health care and retirement communities throughout British Columbia. We have also helped to establish sister societies in all ten provinces, making Concerts in Care a truly national project, with over 20,000 concerts delivered coast to coast. Bravi tutti and heartfelt thanks to our dedicated roster of performers, led by our Artistic Director Karen Lee-Morlang. Thank you as well to our Board of Directors and financial and presentation partners, particularly BC concert sponsor Odlum Brown and national funders BMO Financial Group and Azrieli Foundation.
