The Connection Project

The Connection Project is an annual storytelling event that celebrates the courage, strength, and resilience of those who choose to share their personal mental health story through various forms of artistic expression. Sharing from lived experience is a powerful tool for connection and healing because mental health challenges are isolating in nature and, in many cases, unseen. By storytelling through performance we hope to collectively reduce the stigma and normalize the mental health experience. We need human connection, our stories matter, and sharing is one way to cultivate healing. This event showcases beautiful and personal stories that continue to cast light into the shadows and uplift.
