Are you a physician or medical student who creates art?

Dr. Michiko Maruyama is curating a Heart-Inspired Art Gallery at the Canadian Cardiovascular Congress 2026, taking place in Ottawa from October 15–17, 2026.
Physician and medical student artists are invited to submit original artwork inspired by the heart—whether through anatomy, emotion, illness, healing, connection, or the lived experience of cardiovascular care.
Artists do not need to attend the conference to participate. There are also no costs associated with producing a giclée print, framing the artwork, or transporting it to the gallery.
The deadline for submissions is September 15, 2026.
Details and the submission form are available here:

Please share this opportunity with physicians, residents, medical students, and colleagues who may be interested in bringing together medicine, creativity, and the human experience of the heart.
Questions about the gallery or submission process may be directed to Dr. Michiko Maruyama.
