Hartford Health Disparities Collaborative
Infusing Education with Art Launched in 1993 with an Aetna Foundation grant, the Bushnell PARTNERS® (Partners in Arts and Education Revitalizing Schools) program draws on arts groups, artists, educators and businesses to build literacy among 6,000 students in 17 schools throughout Connecticut. Preserving Mark Twain's Legacy Aetna and the Aetna Foundation were proud to contribute $500,000 for the creation of an exhibit gallery in the new Education & Visitor Center as well as a major exhibit on Twain at Hartford's historic Mark Twain House. Keeping Our Downtown Vibrant Aetna has helped to attract young professionals to the downtown through our support of the Hartford Arts Six Pack, a ticket package that offers admission to events at the Bushnell, Connecticut Opera, Hartford Stage, Hartford Symphony Orchestra, TheaterWorks and the Wadsworth Atheneum. Enriching Lives through Connecticut's Arts Now in its 11th year, The Greater Hartford Arts Council Aetna First Thursdays promote the cultural activities of the city and region each month. In 2005, Aetna proudly sponsored the first-ever "Beaux Arts Ball," a magical celebration of Hartford's vibrant arts - from dance and jazz to synchronized swimming - which spotlighted the new downtown Marriott and benefited the Arts Council and its programs. |
