About Our Exhibitions

The Healing Power of ART & ARTISTS exhibitions are widely promoted with the use of several social media platforms and two subscription-based weekly email newsletters.

At least 30 artists are selected for our exhibitions. The artists who are selected have one of their entries displayed prominently with their statements and links to their websites to help them gain recognition, opportunities for exhibitions and sales.  We also choose artists to receive Special Recognition Art Awards that include additional promotion. We create a video for the exhibition on two YouTube channels.

We encourage visitors to contact the artists directly to purchase their art. The service we provide is to promote the artists. We do not engage in selling art, nor do we accept commissions on any art that is sold as a result of our exhibitions.

The primary curator is Renée Phillips, founder of The Healing Power of ART & ARTISTS, and also founder and director of Manhattan Arts International, New York, NY. Renee is also an author and arts writer. Read more about us.
