Art With Impact

Art With Impact’s mission is to promote mental wellness by creating space for young people to learn and connect through art and media. We are committed to a future where artists are revered as cultural icons of courage and change, enabling young people to communicate freely and fearlessly about their mental health.

Art With Impact was formed in early 2011 to bridge this gap between potential for change and opportunities to act. We run programs throughout the United States and Canada that create safe spaces to learn, cultivate empathy and reduce stigma related to mental health. We continually expand and make available the world’s most diverse and compelling of collection of short films on mental health, supporting a network of filmmakers, artists, and young people in an interactive online community. Our work maximizes collaboration between art and mental health by engaging professionals and academic institutions through sustainable partnerships and transparency of methods and outcomes.

If you’re like us and believe that mental health is the foundation of all social justice and are passionate about the arts, we’d love to welcome you to our community!
