Men’s Mental Health Week 💙

Men are statistically less likely to seek support for their mental health

The work of western suburbs artist Manny Sison is a great reminder that seeking support and reaching out for assistance is important.

Manny's current work at Woods Street Arts Space depicts his experiences with anxiety and depression and how he navigated through it.

If you, or someone you know needs support, Medicare Mental Health delivers free mental health support. Find a location near you, or make a free call on 1800 595 212.

Thank you to everyone who applied for our creative opportunities! We can’t wait to share some of the amazing exhibitions, artist’s in residence and public programs that we are cooking up!
