Impact

Blanton-Peale Institute aims to increase access to mental health services, supports, and education for artists. To this end the Blanton-Peale Institute is launching a fund to support artists’ mental health in partnership In My Own Little Corner Productions.  All proceeds from the A Corner Of Community event will raise monies for the In My Own Little Corner Mental Health Fund for Artists which will enable us to extend services and programming to artists.

Your attendance and donations strengthen supports and impact for artists.

A Cabaret for Artists’ Mental Health

Blanton-Peale Institute is pleased to partner with In My Own Little Corner Productions for an inspiring afternoon of music, storytelling, and conversation on Mental Health Awareness Day: Saturday, October 10, 2026 at The Green Room 42.

During this special cabaret, featuring Broadway’s Chryssie Whitehead & Friends, we celebrate the power of artists supporting artists with songs, stories, and music from Whitehead’s autobiographical play In My Own Little Corner.

100% of proceeds from tickets will benefit the newly formed In My Own Little Corner Mental Health Fund for Artists in partnership with Blanton-Peale.

We hope you will join us for what will surely be an empowering experience at one of NYC's premiere performance spaces.
