Three different events of performing arts dedicated to opening up the conversations about mental health.

Allow the arts to tell you stories, while raising awareness and funds for the Canadian Mental Health Association. Join us for 1, 2 or all 3 events as we open up, support one another and remember that we're not alone. FRIDAY NIGHT brings two powerful one acts. SATURDAY AFTERNOON brings our family friendly programming, so bring the kiddos! SATURDAY NIGHT brings a cabaret of song, dance and speech, which are definitely for the 18+ crowd.
