Description
Movies for Mental Health is intended to create a safe space for members of the community to have an open and honest conversation about mental health. This free workshop includes short films by OLIVE Film Collection that focus on a variety of issues, causes and coping mechanisms. This will be followed by interactive discussions regarding the material, as well as a panel comprised of those willing to share their own experiences and what resources are available.
Join us for a powerful, eye-opening and inspiring evening focused entirely on shining the light on these complex and prevalent issues within our community. THEMUSEUM is proud to partner with Art with Impact with the sponsorship support of Manulife. Please RSVP for this free workshop here.
