Volunteers build health through various artistic endeavors in community centers and living facilities of persons with mental disabilities. Art groups include painting, music, crafts, drama, photography, and creative writing.
Our goals are:
- To build fulfilling life opportunities for the mentally ill using the arts as the medium.
- To open up ways for expression, socialization and skill development.
- To reduce stigma and educate the public about mental health issues.
- Develop guilds to fund raise to aid projects:
- quilting
- drumming
- music circles
- plays
- walking clubs
- chess nights
- laughter groups
- and all the arts possibilities that can be devised to share, befriend and grow together.
- Operating with University interns from drama, art, ceramics and other departments along with talent from community volunteers.
