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\n2\, 16\, 30 May \n\n13\, 27 June\n\n 11\, 25 July \n\n1 Augu
 st\n\nTime: 6.30 to 8.00pm\n\n\n\nYou are invited to take part in an art p
 roject about mental health. In fortnightly sessions at Chisenhale Gallery 
 in Bow\, starting on the 21st of February\, you will work with artist ‘t
 he vacuum cleaner’\, Cecilia Wee and an inspiring group of activists. To
 gether\, you will begin to 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 anything 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 project\n\nTogether\, we will explore the question
 : “How can young people with mental health struggles become leaders in a
 rt-making and mental health change (without all the stress)?” \n\nWe wil
 l do this by spending time together to feel safe\, letting our radical ima
 gination flourish\, and having 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 people together and support them to change what is
 n’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 tog
 ether.\n\nKey Information\n\n 	2.8 Million Minds is open to young people w
 ho 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 su
 rrounding 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 6:30-8 PM\, starting on
  Tuesday 21st of February\, at Chisenhale Gallery in Bow (address below).
