WHY: Lilly Oncology on Canvas is a biennial art competition that invites people diagnosed with any type of cancer, their families, friends, and healthcare providers to express, through art and in narrative, the life-affirming changes that give their cancer journey meaning.

Oncology on Canvas was launched in 2004 as a way to honor the journeys undertaken by women when confronted by a cancer diagnosis. The first competition received more than 400 pieces of art from 23 countries. In 2005, the art began a tour of more than 100 cities throughout the world.

In 2006, the competition was opened to anyone impacted by cancer and resulted in more than 2,000 entries from 43 countries. In 2007, the traveling art exhibit inspired people in nearly 200 cities across the globe.

WHO: Lilly Oncology on Canvas is presented by Eli Lilly and Company, a world leader in cancer research and treatment, in partnership with the National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship (NCCS). This exhibit is made possible by the participation of The Mark H. Zangmeister Center.
