Oncology on Canvas 2019

It is this time of the year again and we will celebrate Oncology on Canvas! A time to get together and use art to express our unique oncology journey. The most important is that you show up and use the art supplies creatively. If you can please call and register to help them make sure there will be enough food and art supplies and all events, but everyone is welcome, registered or not. Oncology on Canvas helps people living with cancer and those that love and care for them to cope with disease through art. No previous art experience is needed, there are no age restrictions and everyone is welcome!!
