We are excited to be holding this year ’ s Consumer Exhibition for Mental Health Month on Tuesday 7 October from 2pm. This is a consumer-led exhibition, and we would love to extend the invitation to both consumers and peer workers to exhibit their artwork. If you or the people you work with are interested, please note that completed artworks will need to be submitted by Monday, 15 September at the latest. For your convenience, I ’ ve attached an entry form to provide details about each artwork (please feel free to leave any sections blank if not applicable). Please note the exhibition will run until March 2026. It would be wonderful to showcase the creativity and expression within our community, and I would greatly appreciate your support in sharing this invitation with consumers and peer workers you may be working with.
