Check Out the 2026 Employee Art Show

The 2026 Employee Art Show opened Wednesday, May 27, with a reception and awards ceremony in the south lobby of CRMH.

All Carilion employees, volunteers, retirees and immediate family members were invited to participate and compete for cash prizes.

This year’s show focuses on the theme, “Shaping a Culture of Care,” reflecting the combined impact of our mission to "improve the health of the communities we serve" and our 5 core values of "community, courage, commitment, compassion, and curiosity.” The artwork is being publicly displayed in the CRMH lobby atrium through June 19.

The Employee Art Show is an initiative of the Dr. Robert L.A. Keeley Healing Arts Program in partnership with The National Arts Program®.

This year, we had 2 sets of awards—National Arts Program Awards and the Community Impact Awards. Congratulations to all our winners and everyone who submitted artwork for this year's show!
