Art & Soul: Ten

2 October - 30 November

This year marks the tenth anniversary of Art & Soul. Over the last decade, this member-led organisation has developed and grown to include over 170 individual members from the borough of Richmond and beyond. Members include a range of individuals who are experiencing or recovering from a variety of mental health issues, including depression, schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.

The aim of Art & Soul is to celebrate mental and emotional well-being through the arts. Workshops and the biennial exhibition offer a platform for people to express themselves creatively and take part in a professional public exhibition. The group also creates a social network and an opportunity to learn new skills.

The new Junior Art & Soul strand, piloted this year, broadens the remit and offers younger people aged between 13-19 to participate.
