Art Beats Stigma Project

Art Beats Stigma

Creating art projects related to substance use and mental health issues told by individuals who have been affected. Individuals interested in participating are encouraged to produce their own work, or they can be paired with an artist who can bring their creative expressions to life.

 

We believe that art- in whatever form it takes- can change the conversation and be a bridge between those struggling with recovery, and the communities they might feel alienated from.

 

The stigma of dealing with the effects of substance abuse and mental health issues can be just as daunting as the issues themselves. Stigma is even credited as a factor that contributes to the severity of the problem, and as an obstacle to recovery.

 

If you can sculpt, paint, write, dance, sing- or whatever- we can use your help. If your medium is digital art, video, photography, or something completely unique, we will be willing to accommodate your vision if you are willing to share it.

We have a roster of professional artists who have enthusiastically volunteered to work on this project. These artists can be coaches, collaborators, editors, or contribute to the specific needs of the works in their various stages. Works are displayed at The Native Nook and Fulton County Recovery Cafe.
