    The Arts in Caring Council presents an inspiring event with Dr. Patch Adams, the real person behind the hit movie Patch Adams, starring Robin Williams. Patch will be delivering his presentation Living a Life of Joy. Patch is both a medical doctor and a clown, and he is also a social activist who has devoted 30 years to changing America's healthcare system. He believes that laughter, joy and creativity are an integral part of the healing process and therefore true health care must incorporate these aspects of life. Patch explores the relationship between humor and therapy using his unique blend of knowledge, showmanship and hands on teaching techniques. Says Patch, 'I interpret my experience in life as being happy. I want, as a doctor, to say it does matter to your health to be happy. It may be the most important health factor in your life.'
