Arts Foundation
Initially, The Cornerstone Arts Foundation aims to fulfil its objectives by embedding artwork in South West Hampshire LIFT projects. Potential projects could range from landscaped gardens to sculptures and could also include creative activities on site such as poetry readings or musical performance.
The Cornerstone Arts Foundation was set up in February, 2009 in order to achieve the following two objectives:
- To relieve sickness and preserve, protect and promote physical, mental and emotional health by the use of arts
- To advance public education in and the appreciation and awareness of the role of the arts in heathcare.
