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\n27 June\n\n 11\, 25 July \n\n1 August\n\nTime: 6.30 to 8.00p
 m\n\n\n\nYou are invited to take part in an art project about mental healt
 h. In fortnightly sessions at Chisenhale Gallery in Bow\, starting on the 
 21st of February\, you will work with artist ‘the vacuum cleaner’\, Ce
 cilia Wee and an inspiring group of activists. Together\, you will begin t
 o imagine what a London-wide programme of art for mental health could be.\
 n\nYou need zero experience in making art. There is zero pressure to do an
 ything you don’t want to do. All you need is a willingness to listen to 
 and support each other. And you will be paid for your time.\n\nAbout the p
 roject\n\nTogether\, we will explore the question: “How can young people
  with mental health struggles become leaders in art-making and mental heal
 th change (without all the stress)?” \n\nWe will do this by spending tim
 e together to feel safe\, letting our radical imagination flourish\, and h
 aving big dreams about how artists and art spaces could better support you
 . It will also be silly and irreverent. We aim to bring a group of young p
 eople together and support them 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 open to young people who have experienced strug
 gles with their mental health\, and young carers.\n 	This project is for p
 eople aged 16-25 who live in Tower Hamlets and surrounding areas.\n 	You w
 ill be paid the London Living Wage (£12p/h) for your time. We will also c
 over costs relating to travel on public transport.\n 	The sessions will ta
 ke place fortnightly from 6:30-8 PM\, starting on Tuesday 21st of February
 \, at Chisenhale Gallery in Bow (address below). You do not need to attend
