Once again I have been contacted to coordinate a paint tiles event and to be on the committee for the Wall of Hope at the Lynn Cancer Institute in Boca Raton.  The Lynn Cancer Institute is number 18 in the state of Florida in cancer treatment and research. Lynn Cancer Institute has a huge program each year for cancer patients, survivors and anyone who is willing to help in the fight against cancer. On June 4, 2017, there will be an early morning five K run and then several hundred patients, volunteers, and family members paint tiles. The tiles are then installed and displayed on the walls of the Lynn Cancer Institute. The Boca Museum the Art School has played an important part in this program since 2012. .Mary Belle Cordell is happy to be woking with Vivian Zadkovich and the team at the Lynn Cancer institute in Boca Raton Florida.
