Crossroads Community, Inc. and Corsica River Mental Health Services, Inc. are thrilled to unveil the 5th Annual “True Colors” Mental Health Awareness Art Show. The event will be hosted at the Todd Performing Arts Center at Chesapeake College from October 8 to October 12, 2024, in honor of Mental Health Awareness Week.
This year’s show invites artists from the Eastern Shore community and beyond to showcase their creative works. A special reception will be held on October 11, 2024, from 4 PM to 7 PM, featuring free admission, live music, and light refreshments. The event aims to celebrate the artistic talents of our clients and the wider community, highlighting the transformative power of creative expression.
Artists of all ages are encouraged to participate, with submissions accepted in various forms including paintings, drawings, photography, sculptures, mosaics, poems, and digital art. Digital works will be showcased on TV screens in the lobby. To ensure proper display, 2D artwork should include a hanging wire, while tables will be provided for 3D pieces. Prizes will be given to artists voted Best in Show. We are also seeking performers for live artistic presentations in the Todd Performing Arts Center theater.
Artists may choose to donate their work or exhibit it for the duration of the show. The deadline for submissions is October 1, 2024. Interested participants must complete the Submission Form available on our website.
