About this Event
Panel Discussion
Art, Mental Health & Lived Experience
Wednesday, March 4 | 6:00 PM – 8:30 PM
Copperbridge Foundation
Within the framework of No Seasoning, we are convening a conversation that feels both necessary and timely.
On March 4, Copperbridge Foundation brings together curator Elvia Rosa Castro, mental health professional Silvia Quintana, LMHC, CAP, and speech-language pathologist Lauren Cleto for an interdisciplinary dialogue on the intersection of art, mental health, and lived experience shaped by structural vulnerability.
At a moment when conversations around inclusion, stigma, and equity are increasingly urgent, this panel asks a critical question:
What role does art play in restoring dignity, identity, and agency?
The artists represented in No Seasoning exist outside traditional institutional structures. Their work emerges from lived realities marked by racial bias, mental health challenges, and developmental differences. To engage with this work responsibly requires us to move beyond observation and into reflection.
This discussion positions Copperbridge not only as a cultural venue, but as a civic space — one where art intersects with education, clinical practice, and community leadership. We see this as part of a larger commitment to building meaningful alliances across sectors in North Miami and Miami-Dade.
For professionals in mental health, education, social services, the arts, and public leadership, this conversation offers an opportunity to connect disciplines and expand impact.
Seating is limited. We encourage early registration.
