BrightSparks Open Art Exhibition: Fortuity

Delivered by BrightSparks: Arts in Mental Health CIO and Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust, Fortuity is the 26th Annual Open Art Exhibition featuring artworks created by mental health service users from across Leicester, Leicestershire, Rutland and beyond.

The exhibition includes works specifically created by members of the ArtSpace arts group based at Attenborough Arts Centre in sessions led by participatory artist Georgia Grocock, and created by the ArtsCafe arts group based at the Bradgate Mental Health Unit in sessions led by participatory artist Jim Jackson. There are also many pieces created by in-patients from different mental health wards and out-patients from a range of different community groups.

Everyone who submitted a piece has been included in the exhibition.
