The Power of Stories is an archive of projects submitted every year to Building Healthy Communities (BHC) Statewide Convening. It showcases work created throughout California highlighting the power of individual and collective efforts to promote health and demonstrates how stories have the power to re-imagine and transform our communities. Produced in partnership with the California Endowment.

Project Submitted by: Maribel Nunez

Project Summary: Working with community members to create art that envisions a healthy community.

BHC Site: Eastern Coachella Valley

The exhibit will showcase art by children and adults that reflects their thoughts, ideas and dreams of a healthy community. By posing the question "What would life be like if everyone was healthy? participants are invited to take part in the process of imaging but also making their ideas a reality.

The exhibit will encourage participants to answer the question for themselves as they view the artwork that exemplifies our Health4All campaign.
