The Baton Rouge chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness hopes to dispel the stigma and change the way the world views mental illness. Support its efforts tomorrow, Nov. 3, at The Mind’s Eye art exhibition and gala at the Arts Council’s Firehouse Gallery.
The artwork was made by people living with or affected by mental illness, in hopes of raising public awareness and providing information on mental illness, while simultaneously providing an outlet for artists.
