Artists4MH Wellness Series

January 4 – February 17, 2021 Thanks to the generous support of the Canadian Red Cross and Employment and Social Development Canada, we were grateful to host our first virtual Wellness Series on Zoom. During a time when COVID-19 brought isolation and uncertainty to so many, we created a free space for our community to come together, connect, and care for one another. The series featured Mindful Self-Compassion, Meditation & Yoga, and educational wellness workshops. Together, we found connection, encouraged one another, and turned a challenging season into an opportunity for healing and hope.

Fabulist Theatre Collaboration

Fabulist Theatre has always been committed to supporting charitable organizations whose missions align with the themes of their productions. While Dracula: A Modern Radio Play wasn't directly about mental health, its messages of resilience and human connection closely reflected the mission of Artists for Mental Health. For this production, Fabulist Theatre generously donated 50% of the proceeds to Artists for Mental Health, with the remaining 50% supporting Fabulist Theatre's continued work creating meaningful artistic experiences and strengthening the creative community.

03

Artists for Mental Health Photoshoot

For our very first creative collaboration, our founder and Executive Director, Kathryn Robinson, brought together a group of like-minded creatives for a mental health-themed photoshoot. What began as a single collaborative project quickly grew into something much greater. With the support of more than 12 passionate volunteers—including actors, models, writers, makeup artists, and photographers—Artists for Mental Health was born in 2018.

SISU Label x Artists4MH

In November 2019, we were thrilled to collaborate with SISU Label to create our first official Artists for Mental Health T-shirt. After months of designing together, we proudly launched the collection, with 20% of every purchase donated to Mental Health America in support of their work promoting mental health awareness and care. Although SISU Label is no longer in operation, we're grateful to have been part of a collaboration that helped raise awareness and support for mental health.
