About Art à la Carte

Art à la Carte is a registered charitable organization based in Calgary, Alberta, that delivers artwork to the hospital rooms of long-term care cancer patients. The program, which began as an effort to lift a dying friend's spirits, provides a unique opportunity for patients, visitors and caregivers to find encouragement and hope by choosing art for their rooms.
