By engaging with artists, connecting with communities and forming collaborations, we celebrate the artistic achievements of people with experience of mental health issues, exploring the relationship between creativity and the mind, and promoting positive mental health and wellbeing.
Launched in 2007, SMHAFF has grown into one of the largest festivals of its kind in the world, with over 300 events and 25,000 attendees across Scotland each October. Its innovative approach, combining high quality artistic events with community led programming and a social justice agenda, has been replicated internationally.
Led by the Mental Health Foundation, it has since expanded its arts activity into a year round programme, branded Mental Health Arts. This programme is supported by See Me, Scotland’s programme to end mental health stigma, and open funding from Creative Scotland.
The aims of SMHAFF are to:

Challenge perceptions
Make connections
Develop audiences
Encourage participation

  388. I’ve been absent for a while, but now I remember why I used to love this web site. Thanks , I抣l try and check back more frequently. How frequently you update your web site?

  389. I have seen loads of useful items on your web-site about pcs. However, I have got the thoughts and opinions that laptops are still less than powerful adequately to be a good choice if you typically do things that require plenty of power, for example video croping and editing. But for web surfing, word processing, and most other typical computer work they are just great, provided you don’t mind the screen size. Many thanks for sharing your thinking.
