The Founders

Lori & Isaac Raijman MD

As a public school teacher of 24 years, Lori Raijman introduced art as the voice and vehicle for her at-risk students to express their personalities, hopes, fears and realities. 

After retiring from teaching, Lori began working with her “gastroenterologist by day, painter by night” husband, Dr. Isaac Raijman. As Lori began to organize art shows for Dr. Raijman, she took note of how the painting process affected him as well as the bridge it built between him, his patients and his colleagues. 

Wanting to share their knowledge of how art can connect and heal communities, The Raijman’s founded The Arts of Healing Foundation. Annually they host The Arts of Healing Physician Art Show, which showcases physician artists and brings them together with their colleagues, patients, friends and family, while serving the community and bringing awareness to a philanthropic cause.

Together, The Raijman’s have empowered a community to come together to connect, create, have fun and even heal in the process.
