Memorial Medical Center Presents Cancer Services Art Exhibit

The Central California Art Association at the Mistlin Gallery is hosting Memorial Medical Center's Complementary Therapy Art Exhibit, "Of Spirals, Twists and Turns."  The exhibit runs October 18 to November 10, with the public reception October 20 from 5:00 to 9:00 p.m. during Third Thursday Art Walk.  Cris Ewell is the instructor and show curator. Mistlin Gallery hours are Tuesday through Friday 11:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and Saturday noon to 4:00 p.m. Mistlin Gallery is located at 1015 J Street, Modesto, 529-3369.

Memorial Medical Center's Art Group is designed to teach participants to unlock their emotions and ideas, and bring clarity and definition to life experiences by expressing themselves through art.  The classes are open to cancer survivors and their caregivers.

Complementary therapies are those that can be used along with conventional medicine therapies that have been proven to be safe and effective.  While complementary therapies are not used to cure disease, many of them have been shown to help relieve patients' symptoms and improve the quality of their lives by minimizing the side effects of conventional treatments or by providing psychological and physical benefits.
