Creating a healing environment to improve the experience of healthcare

THRF Group – Creative Health Exhibition Program was established to assist in a holistic approach to healthcare, with a primary objective to create a healing environment and improve the experience of healthcare and patient outcomes, reduce anxiety and stress and create a positive impact on the wellbeing of patients, their loved ones, healthcare staff and hospital volunteers.

Established in 2017 with the opening of the new Royal Adelaide Hospital, formerly the Centre for Creative Health Exhibition Program, now THRF Group – Creative Health Exhibition Program includes a range of exhibition spaces across Central Adelaide Local Health Network (CALHN) and the Northern Adelaide Local Health Network (NALHN). THRF Group – Creative Health Galleries are currently located at the Royal Adelaide Hospital, The Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Lyell McEwin Hospital and the Specialist Ambulatory Rehabilitation Centre (SpARC), Modbury Hospital. In 2022 THRF Group – Creative Health Exhibition Program expanded to Modbury Hospital.

Led by curatorial best practice and showcasing ever-changing exhibitions, THRF Group – Creative Health Exhibition Program aims to promote the place of arts within a hospital setting, deliver experiences of visual excellence and value, and provide a forum where established, mid-career and emerging artists can engage with new audiences.

The majority of artwork on display in THRF Group – Creative Health Galleries is available for sale, with 75% of the sale price going directly to the artist and 25% going back to THRF Group – Creative Health to assist with the continued delivery of the Exhibition Program.

Where possible the Exhibition Program will actively participate and partner with festivals and events including the Adelaide Fringe Festival, South Australian Living Artists (SALA) Festival and Tarnanthi: Festival of Contemporary Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Art as well as connect with important community initiatives.

THRF Group – Creative Health invites artists to submit exhibition proposals during an annual call out each year. Information on how to apply will be available during the application period.

I purchased one of the paintings by Sue Ninham called Displaced, which was part of the A Dark Place – a celebration of isolation exhibition organised by Creative Health held at Lyell McEwin Hospital in 2023.
When I first saw the painting, I was immediately drawn to the colours and the shapes of the artwork and kept on going back to it.
I saved up for the artwork and was so excited when I was finally able to take it home.
The painting brings me a lot of joy and happiness every time I look at it. It brightens up my day and calms me down at stressful times.
It’s amazing how much having a piece of artwork that I deeply connected with helps improve my mood.
