The Brain & Mental Health Art Show returns on Saturday May 6th at 6 pm at the Glebe Community Centre!
This is an annual event organized by the Society for Neuroscience Ottawa Chapter that brings together the scientific and mental health communities in Ottawa through art in support of a wonderful local charity. This year, all proceeds raised through art auctions, raffle prizes, and drink and ticket sales will benefit Harmony House, Ottawa’s only second stage shelter for women and children fleeing violence. There will be a cash bar with wine and beer (Beer donated by Flora Hall), and free cold appetizers catered by the wonderful chef Tim O’Connor at Flora Hall.
