About ArtDocs
Art is fundamental to human existence...It nourishes our spirit.
PROVIDING
ArtDocs has provided for the arts community of New Orleans since 1998, offering medical care to artists without health insurance. A nonprofit organization, ArtDocs provides care for visual artists, writers, musicians, poets and performers — It nurtures the creative culture that is New Orleans.
ArtDocs is the first program of its kind in the country.
INSPIRATION
ArtDocs is the collaboration of artist / gallery owner Jonathan Ferrara, physician Vincent Morelli and many other selfless contributors. They all share a passion for the arts and a commitment to New Orleans, one of the most fertile and prolific arts communities in the world.
NEW ORLEANS
New Orleans sits on the edge — on the far off fringes — a unique outpost of creativity that stirs an intoxicating brew of tradition and iconoclasm, inspiring an open mind and engaging the hungry soul. A blending of cultures, ideas and expression — fresh-raw-timeless.
