Liora Rosenman is a prize-winning artist. But she always felt that something was missing in her art - until she joined Haverim's Art Rehabilitation workshop.
For several years now, Liora shows up on Wednesdays at the Tel Hashomer Rehabilitation Dept. She helps Haverim's volunteers set up the easels and distribute the paints and water bowls. She then guides the patients to their easels, and helps choose a subject to paint, or a photograph to copy, suggesting techniques for painting the sky, sea foam and more.
Channel 10 interviewed a few patients - see our link.
Liora joins half a dozen loyal volunteers who help shed some light and llend some color to patients who spend months in a painful rehabilitation process.
Soldiers and veterans, youth and elderly. Everyone is welcome to a 'time out' from the daily routine of a hospital ward - to a colorful and artistic respite.
Join us. Your support goes a long way! We constantly need new paints, canvas and easels for the patients.
Thank you.
