Today is the last day of Being Scene, an annual juried exhibition of art by those who have experienced both mental illness and addiction and the healing power of art. By exhibiting these pieces of art, Workman Arts in partnership with the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health endeavors to create a more realistic and respectful understanding of individuals in recovery from addiction and mental illness. The exhibition features work by fifty artists, all of which is for sale. One hundred percent of the proceed go directly to the participating artists.

At this stage in the exhibition, Being Scene is being shown at the Workman Arts building to coincide with the Rendezvous With Madness Film Festival. For more information on Being Scene, go to www.workmanarts.com.
