Founding Sponsor Welcomes Olly to Capital Health

Olly the Ox roams through the lobby of Capital Health Medical Center in Hopewell. Olly is one of a herd of oxen coming to Hopewell Valley for the Hopewell Valley Arts Council's first program, "The Stampede," through which regional artists will decorate and embellish the oxen for display around the Valley. In April, Capital Health's Roma Bank Art and Healing Gallery will host a show displaying the oxen designs. The Stampede will culminate with an "Oxtion" next January where the completed works of art will be auctioned off to the public. Donations of $25,000 from founding sponsors, including Capital Health, have made this program possible. Capital Health, located at One Capital Way in Pennington, provides comprehensive, advanced medical services to improve and sustain the health status of all it serves. Interested sponsors can contact the Arts Council at www.hvartscouncil.org.
