This is a not-for-profit community event that encourages artists to get deep and share what's on their mind and listen to and perform to likeminded people, while helping to break the stigma of mental health.
This intimate event is held in a safe space/gallery, hidden from the general public, and fosters a welcoming environment that supports artists and opens up a conversation about mental health, allowing the sharing of similar experiences of people in the room.
Speak On it aims to bring people together to connect with their community and to ensure they know they are not alone. The sharing of helpful resources and strategies to assist with mental health issues are also encouraged and guests receive helpful resources and phone numbers to call for help.
