Astor Services was proud to table at the O+ FESTIVAL in Kingston on October 10, joining a community that believes healthcare is a shared responsibility and that creativity plays a vital role in collective well-being.

Founded by artists and healthcare professionals, O+ works to expand access to care for artists through innovative exchanges of creative work for healthcare services. We were honored to connect with festivalgoers, share Astor's mission, and celebrate an event that brings together art, wellness, and community support. Thank you to everyone who stopped by our table!
