Can’t believe we are gearing up for our 3rd Annual Mental Health Art Contest! Each year keeps getting bigger and better!
We’re changing it up a bit this year. We’re still keeping the broader theme of Mental Health Awareness, but this time, we’re inviting you to reflect on the Stories of Mental Health. Think about moments of healing, navigating anxiety or depression, grief and loss, resilience, self-care, or things people don’t often talk about. Whether it’s your own experience or what you’ve witnessed in others, we welcome artwork that gives voice to the real, tender, and powerful parts of mental health.
For younger artists: You can share what helps you feel calm when you’re sad or worried, what brings you joy, who supports you when you’re having a hard day, or how you take care of your feelings. Every story matters—no matter how big or small.
The contest is FREE to enter and our Art Stories Showcase is FREE to attend! It is for artists of all ages. All submission guidelines and contest rules can be found on our Entry Form. Please use the link to review the details and submit your artwork.
Winning artists will receive a prize and have their artwork proudly displayed throughout our waiting spaces and honored during our Art Stories Showcase event. You won't want to miss this celebration of creativity, community, and connection.
Help us spread the word by sharing this opportunity with the creative minds in your life. We can't wait to see what you create!
If you have any questions, please email Jess Rios at jess@rootspsychotherapy.com
Art can heal, inspire, and connect us.
