SUMMARY:2.8 Million Minds
DESCRIPTION:CHISENHALE GALLERY and WHITECHAPEL GALLERY invite YOU to take p
 art in An art project about mental health.\n\nJoin 2.8 Million Minds!!\n\n
 “2.8 Million Minds is about helping young people to create an image of t
 hriving on their own terms. This is an invitation to recognise the serious
 ness of the situation\, but also the joy of coming together and taking act
 ion” - A young artist on 2.8 Million Minds\n\n\n\nThe dates of the works
 hops are: \n\n11\, 25 July\n\n1 August\n\nTime: 6.30 to 8.00pm\n\n\n\nYou 
 are invited to take part in an art project about mental health. In fortnig
 htly sessions at Chisenhale Gallery in Bow\, starting on the 21st of Febru
 ary\, you will work with artist ‘the vacuum cleaner’\, Cecilia Wee and
  an inspiring group of activists. Together\, you will begin to imagine wha
 t a London-wide programme of art for mental health could be.\n\nYou need z
 ero experience in making art. There is zero pressure to do anything you do
 n’t want to do. All you need is a willingness to listen to and support e
 ach other. And you will be paid for your time.\n\nAbout the project\n\nTog
 ether\, we will explore the question: “How can young people with mental 
 health struggles become leaders in art-making and mental health change (wi
 thout all the stress)?” \n\nWe will do this by spending time together to
  feel safe\, letting our radical imagination flourish\, and having big dre
 ams about how artists and art spaces could better support you. It will als
 o be silly and irreverent. We aim to bring a group of young people togethe
 r and support them to change what isn’t working.\n\nAt the end of this p
 rocess\, we will share what you have imagined\, what you have made\, and t
 he ways you have worked together at Whitechapel Gallery. What will this lo
 ok like? We will figure this out together.\n\nKey Information\n\n 	2.8 Mil
 lion Minds is open to young people who have experienced struggles with the
 ir mental health\, and young carers.\n 	This project is for people aged 16
 -25 who live in Tower Hamlets and surrounding areas.\n 	You will be paid t
 he London Living Wage (£12p/h) for your time. We will also cover costs re
 lating to travel on public transport.\n 	The sessions will take place fort
 nightly from 6:30-8 PM\, starting on Tuesday 21st of February\, at Chisenh
 ale Gallery in Bow (address below). You do not need to attend all of the s
