This is a sneak peek of the Art in Mind Culture Ground exhibition at @bfestbrighton 2025 called “Artistic Spectrum”.

Our young people created canvases that explored identity, emotions, and personal stories with each artwork a unique reflection of who they.

Our group’s creations are more than just paintings - they’re a celebration of individuality, connection and the healing power of creativity.

If you’re interested in how to be more creative + would like to be involved in our online course or creative resources - comment “CREATE” 🎨 and we will DM you!

Painting and creating art activates the parasympathetic nervous system- your body's natural calm down button.

It helps you rest, relax and recover. When switched on, your heart rate slows, your breathing deepens, and your muscles soften.

It works opposite to the "fight or flight" system, which kicks in when you're stressed or scared.

At Art in Mind, we run creative art groups that help young people and adults regulate their nervous systems through art.

We've created an ebook that explains how this works - comment REGULATE and we will send you a link to our ebook.

World Mental Health Day!

"Mental Health is more than a small part of our lives - it's every moment of every day......mental health matters on the days when eveything happens and the days where nothing happens. When life is busy and unpredictable and when its quiet and ordinary, thats when we fight every day, to support more people tomorrow.

10th October is World Mental Health Day, we want eveyone to understand that mental health is important everyday. Together we can make sure everyone sees it that way."
- this is a quote taken from @Mind.org.uk

Happy Pride! Protect Trans Young People

Everyone deserves to feel safe, supported and celebrated for who they are.

Pride is a time to honour resilience, demand justice and amplify voices that too often are not heard.

Letting go of shame through art 🎨🌬

Shame is quiet and heavy. Creating art has a way of reaching what words can't.

This reel captures a moment of release - bilateral drawing then spiral movement on top. The repetitive motion and rhythm across both hands creates space to feel and to let go.

At Art in Mind, we hold space for exactly this. Art as expression not outcome. Art as a tool to process, move and eventually heal🫂

NEW VEIW 🪞

Art Prompt:

• Look out your window or step outside.

• Sketch what you see. Be playful with this. You could try something different and sketch how being outside feels. Use a metaphor like if a tree feels like strength, a cloud like uncertainty, draw it that way.

Extra -
Journal Prompt:

• If this view was a reflection of my life, what part of me is it mirroring?

•What in this moment feels still? What feels like it’s changing?

Afterwards, consider:

• Did anything shift in me just from observing differently?

• How might noticing my surroundings help me notice myself more kindly?

• What season or phase do I feel like I’m in?

It’s Mental Health Awareness Week!

This week is a reminder of how powerful it can be to come together, create, and connect🫂

At Art in Mind, we’re all about sharing experiences, sharing interests & sharing identity🖌️🎨

Through art, we support one another, express ourselves, and build a space where everyone feels seen and valued.

We’re always excited to welcome new faces into the mix. So that’s why next month (June), we are opening our groups to new members!! So, whether you want to join as a participant, volunteer or simply find out more, get in touch today by emailing us below!
