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\n1 August\n\nTime: 6.30 to 8.00pm\n\n\n\nYou are invited to t
 ake part in an art project about mental health. In fortnightly sessions at
  Chisenhale Gallery in Bow\, starting on the 21st of February\, you will w
 ork with artist ‘the vacuum cleaner’\, Cecilia Wee and an inspiring gr
 oup of activists. Together\, you will begin to imagine what a London-wide 
 programme of art for mental health could be.\n\nYou need zero experience i
 n making art. There is zero pressure to do anything you don’t want to do
 . All you need is a willingness to listen to and support each other. And y
 ou will be paid for your time.\n\nAbout the project\n\nTogether\, we will 
 explore the question: “How can young people with mental health struggles
  become leaders in art-making and mental health change (without all the st
 ress)?” \n\nWe will do this by spending time together to feel safe\, let
 ting our radical imagination flourish\, and having big dreams about how ar
 tists and art spaces could better support you. It will also be silly and i
 rreverent. We aim to bring a group of young people together and support th
 em to change what isn’t working.\n\nAt the end of this process\, we will
  share what you have imagined\, what you have made\, and the ways you have
  worked together at Whitechapel Gallery. What will this look like? We will
  figure this out together.\n\nKey Information\n\n 	2.8 Million Minds is op
 en to young people who have experienced struggles with their 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 the London Living
  Wage (£12p/h) for your time. We will also cover costs relating to travel
  on public transport.\n 	The sessions will take place fortnightly from 6:3
 0-8 PM\, starting on Tuesday 21st of February\, at Chisenhale Gallery in B
 ow (address below). You do not need to attend all of the sessions.\n\nIf y
