Read rave reviews of Artwork Archive from arts and health programs.
Artwork Archive is quickly becoming the collection management system of choice for hospital art collections around the country. The database’s intuitive interface is perfect for programs of all sizes–from small collections in rural locations to health networks that span campuses across a city or state.
Arts in healthcare managers are busy folks. You’re juggling a lot of projects, tasks, stakeholders…and often locations.
Hospitals are also busy places. Your artwork is not displayed in a quiet, secured setting like a museum. Gurneys are speeding past artworks. Children are exploring hallways. That means that you need platforms that simplify your workflow–not complicate it or create more stress.
We at Artwork Archive understand (one of our teammates is the child of an art therapist and mother to a medically complex child). We have been working with hospital art collections for over a decade to help them digitize, organize, manage, preserve and share their artworks. We’re here to save you hours with our easy-to-use online art collection management tools.
“Artwork Archive is my second brain. It is my repository.” Antonia Dapena-Tretter, Stanford Children’s Health

Hear why hospitals like NYC Health + Hospitals and Michigan Medicine call Artwork Archive their essential resource.
Don’t be tethered to your desk. Access your art collection from anywhere.
“Before Artwork Archive we utilized Filemaker which is cumbersome because it did not allow more than a few registered users to access the artwork collection via traditional desktop. Because of Artwork Archive's cloud based technology our art collection can be seen from anywhere even via smartphone!
It's easy for our staff to access and locate art around our campus. Plus donors and friends can utilize the Artwork Archive website to find their favorite art pieces or donated artwork. Artwork Archive also allows us to build "collections" or categories of our collection, so it's easy to search these categories and find art pieces.” – Children’s Hospital Colorado
Save money, time and headache by switching to Artwork Archive from older, clunkier systems.
“We made the switch from Re: discovery Proficio. The old system was not very user friendly. It had a lot of features we did not need. A lot of features were add-ons meaning you would be charged for more functionality. But ultimately, what it really came down to was our need for a public viewing portal and the ability to share and integrate other systems into Artwork Archive seamlessly.” – Arts & Health at Duke University

Collaboration becomes simple and effective with Artwork Archive.
“I highly recommend this database and the company as a whole. I love how easy it is to add files on the fly! It's cloud-based so I can access it on any of my devices. I use it in collaboration with the many stakeholders who work on the hospital's art program with me. It's also very easy to learn to use, as opposed to many of the databases I've been exposed to before. Plus, their customer service is impeccable!” – Stanford Children’s Health

Plus the maintenance feature is a useful tool for tracking repairs and maintenance to artwork located in multiple satellites locations.” – Children’s Hospital Colorado
