Painting for Mental Health
Past Event
Pick up a paintbrush and help create beautiful benches for our city with local artist Gavin Murray.
Start your day with a painting, a free morning tea, hear from inspirational speakers and receive information from local support agencies to better equip yourself to support those around you struggling with mental health.
The benches were refurbished at the Men's Shed, and Gavin will add his unique design outlines ready for you to add your piece of creativity.
Once the beautified benches are completed, they will be placed in various locations around the City to showcase your masterpiece as well as encourage conversations about mental health.
