Grief and Healing Artwork Contest

Journeys book coming soon!

Journeys has been providing poignant and valuable articles to its readers for over 10 years and the time has come to compile some of the most helpful pieces into one volume.  Spanning topics such as newly bereaved, anniversaries, holidays, children, and healing, the book will aim to further assist all our readers in their journey through bereavement.  Available early Fall 2012.

Design the cover!

Hospice Foundation of America will be accepting photographs and/or artwork from hospices nationwide.  HFA will choose one photograph to be displayed as a cover image for our Journeys book. Several other pieces of photographs and/or artwork will also be chosen to be displayed on our website at www.hospicefoundation.org/journeyscover, and may also be used inside the Journeys book, or to be displayed in other HFA-related materials.

If your hospice or organization runs supportive teen and/or adult grief programs, where grief-related photographs/artwork is produced, you may submit this artwork to our foundation for consideration. Please follow the simple requirements, below, if you are going to submit artwork to HFA. 

You may send photographs and/or artwork to us electronically, or via mail.  Acceptable formats are jpeg, gif, eps or tiff files (high resolution images of 300dpi or higher).

Each artist (or guardian) will need to sign the attached release form if they wish for their work to considered for display on our book cover, website, or other HFA-related material.  There will be a small honorarium provided to the organization of the chosen book cover image. This honorarium is intended to help support the grief program. Both the artist and/or the grief program will be credited in all cases in which the artwork is used.

Please send all electronic images to journeys@hospicefoundation.org.  If sending via mail, please send to:
