'Art comes from many places - the inventive brain, the creative hands but mostly, it comes from the heart. Someone's desire to be heard or have fun; to provoke conversation or share joy...all these reasons are pieces of the heart that an artist is brave enough to put on show. No matter the talent or ability, each piece has a heartbeat and a life. We like to think we quicken the pulse, just a little, with The ART in heART.' – Betty
The ART in heART exhibition showcases artworks by local emerging artists attending workshops run by Neami National, a community mental health service supporting people living with mental health issues to improve their health, live independently and pursue a life based on their own strengths, values and goals.
