On The Sidelines
The time has finally arrived, this weekend sees the launch of a new mental health art exhibition in Glasgow: On The Sidelines. I have been facilitating this project, funded by the Baring Foundation, in partnership with the Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival. The participants, men who have recently became fathers, have bravely shared their experiences and have created some incredible artwork in the process. Working across screen printing, digital media and creative writing, their body of work highlights the many challenges faced by new dads during the pandemic, and the lack of formal support. The exhibition is open for two days only, so make sure you show your support and pay it a visit! Saturday 21st May 12-6

pm and Sunday 22nd May 12-4 pm
