Art and Health Advisory Committee
The Art and Health Advisory Committee is made up of experts from the health, art therapy, research and arts communities, in addition to philanthropists and representatives of the MMFA. It has carried on its mission to promote research on art and health since 2016. The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts is actually the first fine-arts museum to have set aside physical space and created an expert committee dedicated to art and health.
