Comments about their book A

Celebration of Healing

(available for sale and signing) by artist Sal

Brownfield

and writer Eve Hoffman along with two paintings from

Brownfield’s “Celebration of Healing” series on

exhibit

at Hugdens Art Center. Free and open to the public.

A Celebration of Healing is an art book, a book of stories bringing encouragement

and confidence to those impacted by breast cancer and other serious

illness.  It is neither a cancer “how to” guide nor a Hallmark card –

rather a book giving permission to laugh, to cry, rage and to know one is not

alone.  The twenty-one paintings and narratives build bridges between the

physical and emotional needs of patients, families, friends and the medical

community. They

become a part of the healing. 

A Celebration of Healing includes a wide range of breast cancer

experiences and demographics. Reader after reader, including those with

different kinds of cancer, have commented I

wish I’d had this book when diagnosed.  These are my stories, my

stories!  Others have

suggested A stack of Celebration

should be in every doctor’s waiting room.
