EXPERIENCE THE OUTSIDER INSIGHT PROJECT
What We DO
Art Shows
We love to find new places and creative ways to show art from our members. We even help promote and sell their work.
Awareness projects
We use our voice to promote awareness of issues facing people with mental illness. Connect with us to make that voice louder.
Fundraising
We spend a lot of time selling our gear and running fundraisers, so we can promote the issues, and support other great organizations fighting the same battles.
About
Our Roots
We are an organization run by and for people with mental illness, and those who have been effected by mental illness. We are about raising awareness of mental illness through art, and other supportive programs.
OI is entirely run by mental health consumers, and it promotes awareness of issues facing those living with mental illness and that advocates for understanding and acceptance. A peer based model is shown to be highly effective for both artists learning new skills and for mental health consumers sharing strategies promoting wellness.
