Artists Wellness Series: Mental Health and Gender Gap

StreetARToronto in partnership with MUSE Arts will be convening an Artists Wellness Series as Free Events to be held once a month for three consecutive months: February, March and April. Presented as panel discussions, the conversations with artists are intended to hold space to discuss Mental Health and Wellness as well as to share wise practices.

The second session Mental Health and Gender Gap will take place on March 25th from 2:00 pm to 3:30 pm ET.

“Gender and Mental Health” will explore the impact of COVID-19 on women and non-binary artists‘ mental health, and furthers the conversation on Mental Health’s gender gap.
