Art Against Stigma

This just in from one of our visitors - LC says:

There is a new art exhibition going on around Europe called "Art Against Stigma". The exhibition includes paintings by artists with psychiatric disorders and without them in an attempt to show the public that in art we are all the same; there's no difference, no stigma.

You can see the collection
here: Art Against Stigma Exhibit

The date of the exhibition in the U.S. has not been set yet. In the
meantime, please spread the word and let other people know about this
amazing project.
