Project snapshot

SISTAAH Studio’s The O.Y.E. Project project is a creative initiative focused on building a vibrant arts community while helping cancer survivors increase coping skills and strengthen communication in a safe, supportive environment to express their emotions. Their primary demographic is older adult African-American and Latino/a residents in Harlem and they will provide space for these elder cancer survivors to mingle regularly. The O.Y.E Project will replicate the Creative Center Arts in Healthcare model of providing free arts workshops for cancer patients.
