Where We Serve

We bring therapeutic medical clowning to hospitals and care facilities across Greater Boston, offering connection, joy, and presence to patients and residents of all ages.

Pediatric Sites

Our clowns bring child-led play, empowerment, and laughter to young patients in some of the region’s leading pediatric and rehabilitation hospitals.

We currently serve:

Boston Medical Center

Franciscan Children’s

Mass General Brigham

Seven Hills Pediatric Center

Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital

Tufts Medical Center

We also participate in special events and celebrations for children navigating illness or hospitalization.

Elder Care Sites

In long-term and memory care settings, we offer emotional connection, music, and gentle presence to older adults — many of whom are living with dementia.

We currently serve:

Hebrew Rehabilitation Center – Roslindale

NewBridge on the Charles – Dedham

In these communities, our clowns bring a sense of calm and joy — often evoking memories and connection through non-verbal cues, song, and shared stillness.

Our Hospital Partners

Clowning Around the World

Hearts & Noses is proud to be part of a vibrant international community of therapeutic clowning organizations.

From North America to Europe and beyond, these groups share a commitment to bringing presence, joy, and emotional connection to patients of all ages — in pediatric hospitals, memory care units, and more.

Together, we exchange knowledge, refine best practices, and elevate the field of medical clowning — helping this work reach more people, in more places, with more impact.
