Mindful: Exploring Mental Health Through Art

One in four adults lives with a mental health condition, yet this common illness often remains hidden behind a wall of secrecy and isolation. "Mindful: Exploring Mental Health through Art" - Contemporary Craft’s latest socially engaged art experience - breaks down societal stigmas and offers an opportunity to encounter and understand mental health through the lens of contemporary craft. Featuring a series of exhibitions, innovative community engagement and education opportunities, and a diverse series of programs and events, "Mindful" reaches beyond the gallery walls to examine creativity’s role in mental health, resiliency, and compassion.
On view at the Society for Contemporary Craft in Pittsburgh's Strip District through March 12, 2016.
