Individuals recovering from mental illness or substance abuse will share their journeys through artwork in a special exhibit titled Restoring Dignity through the Arts, on view Saturday, May 19, from noon to 5:00 p.m. in the Burchfield Penney Art Center.

Through painting, sculpture, weaving, photography, poetry, music, and video, artists 18 and older will illustrate the need for acceptance, dignity, and social inclusion for people in recovery. Both Native and non-Native artists from Western New York and Southern Ontario will contribute to the exhibit.
