Erlanger Bledsoe Hospital is proud to announce it is one of 10 Tennessee hospitals joining the Tennessee Arts & Rural Health Initiative, a program created to support art-based projects designed to improve health and wellness outcomes in Tennessee hospitals.
Erlanger Bledsoe Hospital’s partnership with National Endowment Association for the Arts (NEA) and the Tennessee Arts Commission will bring in local photography displayed throughout the facility, made possible by the Tennessee Arts Commission award of $170,000 towards the initiative.
The artwork at Erlanger Bledsoe Hospital will be provided by award-winning photographer, John Hargis, who is known for his landscape images, and Isaiah Knowles, known for his aerial images. Both Hargis and Knowles reside in Bledsoe County and use their photography to showcase the beauty of the local area.
