Embracing Mental Health! See Artworks Submitted to AIA Mental Health Showcase:
May is recognized as International Mental Health Awareness Month, emphasizing the essential values of self-care, self-understanding, self-acceptance, and prioritizing mental health and personal growth. It encourages individuals to enhance their mental well-being, fostering a compassionate outlook towards others and society at large.
To commemorate the significance of the upcoming 525 Mental Health Day, AIA cordially invites teenagers from around the world to express their thoughts through creative mediums such as paintings, literature, or music that explore the theme of mental health. Each submitted piece serves as a powerful expression of personal experiences, emotions, and perspectives, contributing to a collective narrative of mental well-being.
