What to Expect:

Curated Art Exhibition

This is a curated community art exhibition celebrating mental health awareness, grief, love, healing, hope, and connection. This experience explores how art can help us process loss, express difficult emotions, create community, and bring light into moments that may feel heavy or hopeless.

In a time when we are more digitally and para-socially connected than ever, many people still experience loneliness, grief, isolation, and disconnection. Where the Light Shines invites artists to explore how creativity can help fill those gaps, remind us that it is okay not to be okay, and encourage meaningful connection across all ages, backgrounds, and communities.

Experience the art + Celebrate Mental Health Awareness
