Artists in Recovery
Cafe The Lodge proudly showcases original artwork created by our Artists in Recovery program participants. With over 46 paintings on display, our café walls tell stories of healing, hope, and creative expression.
Artists in our program work with professional mentors to develop their craft and share their unique perspectives with the community. Artwork is available for purchase, with proceeds supporting the artists directly.
