Several mental health groups will host a reception and art show Monday in honor of National Mental Health Awareness Week, Oct. 4-10.
The event, featuring paintings, photographs, sculpture and other objects created by people with mental illness, will begin at 5 p.m. at the St. Phillip Neri Chapel at 236 Woodbine St. in Old Louisville. Michael Allen, a nationally known civil rights lawyer from Washington D.C. will speak at 7.
The event is free and open to the public, although art objects will be for sale and donations will be accepted to cover the cost of the event. It is sponsored by Seven Counties Services, Wellspring, Bridgehaven and NAMI Louisville.
