Art for Change: BIPOC Youth Mental Health Advocacy

ActionDignity

Call for Black, Indigenous and Racialized Youth Artists to join our Art for Change: BIPOC Youth Mental Health Advocacy campaign!

BIPOC (Black, Indigenous and People of Colour) youth growing up in the West have extremely unique experiences with cultural dissonance and mental health stigma that often go overlooked. We want to take this opportunity to use art as a way to explicate these experiences and create awareness of the impacts of these themes on youth.

We have several pre-submission workshops for you to help you prepare for this art creation journey. Mental health support resources are listed as well for your needs.

Check out the details and submission guidance, visit linktr.ee/actiondignityyouthmh.

What’s more exciting?

A youth art exhibition is coming up in May! The exhibition will feature selected zine pages and other artworks created by our youth. Let’s work together to advocate for BIPOC youth mental health.
