Washington Health Benefit Exchange Unveils Community Art Installations Promoting Healthcare for All

In November 2023, Washington became one of the first states to open its health insurance marketplace to all residents, including undocumented immigrants. Everyone who lives in Washington state now has the opportunity to buy health and dental insurance through Washington Healthplanfinder, regardless of immigration status.

In an effort to raise awareness among immigrant communities across the state, Washington Health Benefit Exchange is collaborating with local artists Ivy Liu and Cecelia DeLeon, Urban Artworks, and community members to create two art installations promoting healthcare access for all.

The art installations will also foster community connection through participation in the creative process. Two community painting sessions, guided by artists Cecelia DeLeon and Ivy Liu, took place in Seattle in April and May. The finished pieces will be installed in Yakima, WA.
