Art allows one to express their inner most thoughts, and feelings. 

The art exhibition is an avenue that allows one that is mentally ill the opportunity to display their creativity, also provides the artist an outlet for their creative voice. The artist is also provided the avenue to sell their art or craft, and introduce themselves as the artist. 

The art exhibit creates a world of integration for those that are mentally ill, and for those that are not. The exhibit allows both worlds of creativity to co-exist, together, un-stigmatized.
