Mental illness is a real and serious issue that we face today. Instead of telling someone to 'snap out of it', be kind and try to empathize It helps if you ...try to educate yourself on mental health #MentalHealthMatters #MentalHealthAwareness #YouMatter

United in Art: Online Exhibition United in Art marks the first exhibition, in what is hoped will become an annual event between the Penticton Arts Council and t...he Canadian Mental Health Association SOS's Unity House Art Group. Unity House provides social, recreational and educational programs for individuals living with a mental illness, as well as a meals program, activities, mental health advocacy and a volunteer program for clients to help them become more involved in the clubhouse. The Art Group is a great creative outlet for mental health clients to express themselves in a healthy and empowering way, as well as a way to socialize with their fellow members in a non-stressful environment. The Penticton & District Community Arts Council has been providing arts and cultural programming and supports for artists and our community for the past sixty years. When approached by Unity House to explore ways of working together they discussed highlighting the work being done by the Arts Group participants to celebrate their voices as well as promoting the process of creating as a form of self care that everyone in the community can use. Some of the United in Art works are not available for sale as they are part of the artist’s healing journey, but if you see something you would like to purchase, please contact us and we can reach out to the artists.

In need of more participants for safetalk in Oliver this coming Wednesday November 18th! Register where it says on the poster!
