About This Event

Art for Mental Health
presented by Colorado Access

Join us for Art for Mental Health, an evening exploring the connection between creativity and emotional well-being. Enjoy meaningful conversation, dinner and drinks, and opportunities to connect with others throughout the evening.

We'll recognize current and welcome new members of the Friends of Heartland Honorary Council, honoring community leaders and supporters whose commitment helps expand access to mental health services.

You'll also gain a better understanding of Heartland and how therapy, peer support, and community programs help people find hope, build a sense of belonging, and realize they don't have to face life's challenges alone.

Whether you come with friends, colleagues, or on your own, we hope you'll leave feeling inspired, encouraged, and with a renewed appreciation for the role creativity and connection can play in our lives.

Create & Connect Experience 

Come early for a one-hour guided creative experience led by Haley Abrams, LCSW, a local artist and social worker who believes art is for everyone. With a background in both fine arts and mental health, Haley brings together creativity, connection, and emotional well-being in her work.

Using Haley’s hand-cut stencils and metallic paints, you’ll create your own colorful greeting card to share with someone in your life. Play with color, pattern, and design while enjoying a relaxed opportunity to connect with others and experience the joy of making something beautiful.

No artistic experience is needed. Haley will guide you through the process, so just come as you are, get creative, and have fun!

Your Impact

Event proceeds help make mental health services and supportive community resources more accessible to adults in Denver. Your support helps create more opportunities for compassionate care, meaningful connection, and a community where people feel welcome and supported.
