Lincoln Art Exchange Announced for Independent Artists Who Cannot Afford Healthcare Costs

Lin-Manuel Miranda, shown at left, has partnered with Lincoln Medical and Mental Health Center in the Bronx to introduce an innovative program that allows artists of all disciplines the opportunity to exchange their creative services for medical care. The program, "Lincoln Art Exchange," is designed to address the growing number of independent and freelance artists who cannot afford to enroll in health insurance plans and have become an at-risk population that lacks access to quality health care.
