Beautiful artwork collaboration created by local artist Nicole Curry and Arkansas Children's Hospital Northwest patient Mia, age 8.

ABOUT MIA
Mia came to Arkansas Children's Hospital (ACH) as a baby to have a hearing test done. Mia received hearing aids, speech therapy and, eventually, cochlear surgery. Her parents expressed how helpful the staff at ACH are every time they visit, and Mia loves to utilize the craft cart while she waits for her appointments. She is a strong-willed, funny girl and loves to sing, play the guitar and play softball. In the future, Mia wants to become an audiologist, so she can help kids just like her.

ABOUT THE ART
This cheerful and inspiring piece was created in collaboration between the resilient music enthusiast, Mia, and her loving grandmother Nicole. The quote reflects part of a song that Mia wrote and loves to sing with her guitar. Mia hopes this quote brings happiness and a smile to another kid in the same way it does for her.
