Making their mark

Artist Lisa Sheinbaum (pictured, with husband Roy Sheinbaum) collaborated with children at Periwinkle Day Camp to create a visual-arts piece for the Texas Children's Hospital (TCH) Cancer and Hematology Center’s Making a Mark event. Each year, the Periwinkle Foundation partners with a local artist and TCH patients to host Periwinkle Day Camp for children who are current or former patients, and their siblings, at Texas Children’s Cancer Center. Together, campers and the artist create a piece of art to be displayed in the hospital. Lisa, co-founder of nonprofit Art for All Homes and an art teacher for assisted living facilities, led children in a creative activity that showcased their own ideas and personalities. The end result was a fun, floral piece of art where each child created their own flower.
