Our Story
Art Healing Hearts: A journey of healing
Art Healing Hearts began with one brushstroke of healing. Founded by Lu Monteleone, the program was born from her personal journey of coping with the loss of a loved one. Through painting, Lu discovered a powerful way to process grief and release emotional pain. This transformative experience ignited her passion to share the healing power of art with others, and Art Healing Hearts was born—a place where creativity meets recovery.

A little paint can take you pretty far…
With just a few strokes of a brush, lives are transformed. Hundreds of people have found inspiration through our program, continuing to paint as a form of healing and self-expression. Some have even taken their art to the next level, becoming professionals and living their creative dreams. A little paint truly goes a long way.
