CAMPAIGN FOR THE ARTS IMPACT

SAVINGS

HEALTH & WELLNESS

Patients who see nature or art from their hospital beds recuperate almost one day faster and require fewer pain medications. A single hospital day averages $2,300, and about 25 million people per year stay at least one night in the hospital, which adds up to a potential of $56 billion in savings per year.
