Activity book created as part of the National Portrait Gallery's Hospitals' Programme: The National Portrait Gallery has worked with London children’s hospitals for 15 years to promote health and wellbeing through creative arts programming. Inspired by portraits in the Gallery’s Collection, artists deliver creative art workshops and provide resources with the aim to distract, relax, inspire and bring happiness to children, young people and their families during their time in hospital. Our five current partners are Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, Evelina London Children’s Hospital, Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, Newham University Hospital and The Royal London Hospital.
