About the Annual Celebrating Creativity in Mental Health, Wellness, and Recovery Art Show:
This annual exhibition began when the Clara Martin Center was celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2016 with the idea of supporting mental health and challenging the stigma surrounding it. This sparked the Clara Martin Center to host the Me-2 Orchestra and the first Celebrating Creativity Art and Poetry Show. Clara Martin Center is a local non-profit organization, providing mental health and substance abuse services to Orange County and greater Upper Valley communities.
