Join us for a “Paint and Prevent” event — a creative spin on a popular happening where attendees get a guided painting lesson as well as a preventive mammography screening.

Local artist Claire Payne of Painting Social will lead the artistic portion of the event. Payne lives in Georgia and hosts regular “Paint and Sip” events at local restaurants and bars as well as privately. She is teaming up with the Diagnostic Imaging Department at NMC to invite women to take some time to focus on their own health and well-being.

The event takes place in the Courtyard Café and will cost $35, with refreshments provided by NMC. Participants must be due for their mammogram, and will pause their painting briefly for their mammography, just down the hall from the Café.

Pre-registration Required: Call Community Relations at 524-1280

Fee: $35 plus the cost of the screening
