Ever since the work of local artists brightened the walls of the former Mary Hitchcock Memorial Hospital, the arts have been instrumental in creating an uplifting environment for Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center's (DHMC's) patients, staff and visitors.

A generous bequest from Gertrude Mertens, the gift of Audubon prints from Laurance and Mary Rockefeller, and a donation from the DHMC Auxiliary form the basis for the Arts and Humanities Program and have allowed it to expand over the years.
