WELCOMES YOU TO THE
Virtual Art Show Archive
2020
MHADC’s annual art show was a fixture at the Heritage Center during the month of May since 2011. May is nationally recognized as “mental health awareness month.” However, 2020 was a different and difficult year for many due to the pandemic, and the art show moved online.
MHA hosted a show, updated almost monthly Starting in July. Because it is a virtual exhibit, we kept the works up permanently.
To help promote togetherness and a sense of community, we opened the art show to all including clients, staff, and those in the community.
The exhibit, now in its ninth year, features Dutchess County artists whose art inspires, raises awareness, and promotes the mission of Mental Health America. Each participant is unafraid to break through barriers and to push limits in support of the vision of Mental Health America of Dutchess County. Many of our artists are getting their first opportunity to demonstrate their talent within the community and this has lifted the aspirations of everyone involved.
MHADC envisions a society in which every individual is treated with dignity and respect and where comprehensive mental health services of the highest quality are available and accessible to all.
Thank you for supporting the arts and please enjoy the exhibit!
