Colourful Minds Artist Market has been created to focus a spotlight on creators/artist with a lived experience, (who are neurodiverse, have mental health conditions, are chronically ill and are differently abled and disabled).
There are currently over 40 artists with original works and fan art. Creators who make their own self-care products like scrubs and candles. As well as products created by our talented creators to assist with journaling and self-care.
This market is a part of mental health month where the theme is “let’s talk about it” so there will be practical activities to help us all share our lived experience and talk about mental health, neurodiversity, chronic illness and disability to help reduce the stigma and help us to realise we are not alone.
It will be held on 26th October @Castle Hill RSL - 77 Castle Street Castle Hill
10am-4pm
