Wellness Resources & Wellness Art Challenge

What does wellness look like to you? Inspired by the exhibition Well, Well, Well: Picturing Wellness in the LUAG Collection, participants are asked to express their own representations of wellness. Utilizing their chosen art form, participants considered how art can help with self-care, mindfulness, and stress relief.

The Wellness and Mental Health Art Challenge was offered in partnership with LU Artists for Change, Lehigh University Art Galleries (LUAG), and Shanthi Project.

The challenge took place March 13-26. Congratulations to the winners!
