This project is not just a reflection of their talent but also a poignant gesture of support for patients facing challenging health battles.

At the helm of this inspiring venture is Elsabe Bell, an art teacher at the school whose own experience with cancer has deeply touched her life. “My own child had cancer, and I know that the journey can be uncertain and scary at times,” she said. Driven by her personal narrative, Elsabe aimed to harness the uplifting power of art to provide emotional comfort and a sense of companionship to those undergoing treatment.
