Join us for a powerful community project focused on mental health awareness, resilience, and connection.
On May 19th, we are partnering with Photos by Jess to create a space where people can share the real, honest experiences that shape their mental health journeys.
Participants will have the opportunity to write down something they struggle with, a battle they have faced, or an experience that has impacted their mental health. You can choose to hold your message in your photo or remain completely anonymous and have a photo taken of only your words.
This event is about reminding people they are not alone.
Mental health impacts all of us in different ways, yet so many people feel pressure to stay silent about what they are carrying. Our hope is that this project helps people feel seen, heard, supported, and connected through honesty and shared humanity.
You do not need to have the “perfect” story or words to participate. Simply showing up matters.
All donations from this event will support The Gray Matters Collective and our mission of mental health awareness and suicide prevention throughout our communities.
