Doylestown Health Foundation Foundation believes in the healing power of art and is pleased to accept submissions of fine art for our permanent art collection and our Art Library. Artwork will embellish art galleries, conference rooms, meeting spaces, and offices in Doylestown Hospital, enriching the experience for visitors, patients, and staff. The Art Library offers an opportunity for donors to give works of art in a wider variety of styles and media and allows staff to choose works for their own office spaces on a rotating basis.
We request donations of art that are representational in nature, depicting the recognizable world. Strongest preference will be given to works in the Pennsylvania Impressionist style, as well as accomplished regional landscapes centered in and around Bucks County, Pennsylvania. This style is also referred to as the “New Hope School” or the “Pennsylvania School” of landscape painting.
All submissions will be reviewed by the Art Committee. Artwork should be in good condition, or the donor may be asked to cover the cost of conservation. Paintings and photographs should be appropriately framed prior to donating; the Art Committee reserves the right to request reframing at the donor’s expense.
Public spaces throughout Doylestown Hospital have been designated as Art Walks and galleries, such as the Lichtman Art Gallery on the second floor of the Cardiovascular and Critical Care Pavilion. These are prime display areas for some of our finest art treasures.
Doylestown Hospital’s conference rooms and meeting spaces includes individual offices and are open to staff, volunteers, and—in some cases—the public for a variety of purposes, from clinical meetings to informal gatherings and presentations.
There are several outdoor spaces on the Doylestown Hospital campus suitable for displaying sculpture. Works designated for outdoor display may be abstract or representational in nature. The donor is responsible for any necessary repairs prior to installation, and covers the cost of art handling, storage, and installation as needed.
