Just a quick reminder: 'Arts in the Garden' (AITG) is just a few days away! The event this year themed Honoring Our Journey and is set to take place on May 7. The theme of Honoring Our Journey is so very appropriate as AITG is one of the ways each year we celebrate the strength and perseverance of our clients.
AITG is held each May during Mental Health Awareness Month and serves as an opportunity to celebrate the many talents and abilities of consumers of mental health services. It's a great place for consumers, family members, mental health professionals and the Atlanta community to gather and network. The day is filled with festivities throughout the Skyland Trail gardens for everyone to enjoy. Attendees experience hands-on workshops, make & take classes, demonstrations, art exhibits, music and dance performances, plant and art sales, a silent auction, and mental health education. AITG also aims to educate the public about mental illness in order to reduce stigma.
Please come out and support, empower, and become educated on those with mental illnesses. This is one of our favorite events each year, and everyone is invited! Please see a few pictures from past AITG events...see you all there!
