Cedar Hill Medical Center GW Health Opens!

Washington, DC’s new Cedar Hill Regional Medical Center opens its doors to the public (today, April 15th) — and welcomes visitors with stunning public art, including vibrant glass works by Washington Glass Studio.

DC Mayor Muriel Bowser reflects on the process of creating the first new hospital in DC in 25 years.

As featured in East of the River News by writer Elizabeth O’Gorek, the installations reflect the resilience and creativity of the community. One piece was created by Washington Glass Studio, and another striking glass work was made at the Washington Glass School by artist Imar Hutchins, assisted by Patricia de Poel Wilberg.

Together, these works celebrate healing, color, and the transformative power of art in public spaces.

The new glass mural, “The Legacy of the Land and the Waters” made by the Washington Glass Studio community is installed in the main entry lobby.
