This month’s theme, Mental Health and the Artist’s Journey, invites two artists to share how artmaking intersects with grief, growth, and healing.From raw, personal storytelling to dreamlike visual expression, this evening explores the unseen inner work that shapes creative practice.

Whether through solo talks or collaborative dialogue, this event centers honesty, process, and the power of making meaning through art.

Featured Artists:

Erika Sterner (she/her) | Printmaker & StorytellerErika creates linocut prints rooted in real-life stories, her own and others’. Her art speaks to healing, connection and the reminder that every story matters.

Ryan Guillaume (he/him) | Painter & SculptorRyan’s work explores imagination and the pursuit of wonder, with vibrant, emotional pieces that reflect his journey through art and life.

To us, Pay What You Can isn’t just a sliding scale, it reflects our belief that art should be accessible to all.If you’re in a place to give financially, we are grateful. If your offering is presence, listening, or truth-telling, that’s equally powerful.Support looks different for everyone and they all matter.
