A Collective Celebration of Creativity and Well-being

The exhibition was not only an art exhibition; it was a celebration of how creativity can foster mental well-being and how art can help to express ourselves. Each piece of art was a testimonial to the resilience and talent of those “vibrant minds“,  together with the essential role of art in mental health care.
