NAMI Utah Artists' Project

NAMI Utah Artist project’s mission is to provide opportunities to artists with mental illness in order to:

• Ensure that the voices and ideas of artists with mental illness are present to confront negative stereotypes, which persist in the community.
• Support the recovery of artists with mental illness through further development of their talents and providing opportunities to market and display art in the community.

In recent news:

• Join us at our monthly Artists’ Socials
• Join us at our monthly Project Meetings

The Artists’ Project is sponsored by NAMI Utah and incorporates NAMI Utah’s goals of advocacy, support, education, and the belief in treatment and recovery. Art is a therapeutic medium. The process of creating encourages recovery and empowerment through self-expression, and in this, self-advocacy. The benefit of the artists seeing their work displayed builds self-esteem and provides a sense of acknowledgement.   It is also known to provide important health benefits.
