"Expressions: Exploring Recovery Through Art" exhibit.
Steinbach Arts Council is proud to present the exhibit of “Expressions: Exploring Recovery Through Art”, with special feature “Out of the Blue”, art by youth promoting positive mental health.
The exhibit will begin with the opening on September 30 at 7pm and will be running through October 28 at the Steinbach Cultural Arts Centre.
Expressions is a free community event held annually in conjunction with Mental Illness Awareness Week. Its purpose is to showcase and celebrate the outstanding ability of people who use art in the journey of recovery from a mental health problem and to promote better understanding of mental illness in the Eastman region. This is the 8th annual Expressions but it is the first in partnership with the Steinbach Arts Council.
This year, the art will be on display for the entire month of October at the Steinbach Cultural Arts Centre. The artists who are from the Eastman region, express themselves through a variety of media including watercolours, acrylics, oils, photography and textiles. In addition, there will be artists who write and perform both music and poetry taking part in the exhibit opening.
Everyone is invited to attend the opening ceremony. For inquiries call 371-0824.
