Canvas of Emotions was set up by Ben Growden (TKS) and Nicolas Thevenot (EXS) as an event to help raise awareness for mental health and money for subsidized councilling sessions, aimed at locals and expats who don’t have the finances to seek professional help.

The event itself focuses on 3 artists who all present their work to a panel of 3 specialists in the Mental Health field. The panelists ask the artist questions based on their art and the idea is for the artists to talk about their feelings and emotions during the process of creation.

So far in 2024, We’ve held 3 events with nearly 200 people attending over the course of the 3 events and we are currently in the planning to create the final event of the season, which is an art market dedicated to raising funds for CCS and their subsidised councilling sessions.
