Now a regular on the arts scene, the 4th Scottish Mental Health Arts and Film Festival has grown to become one of Scotland's most valued cultural events with nearly 200 exciting and affordable events taking place across the country to help challenge attitudes towards mental health through the arts. The festival reaches people from Aberdeen to Ayrshire; in galleries, theatres and cinemas to town halls, universities & colleges, libraries and pubs.

The Festival gets people thinking and talking about mental health. Through engaging artists, connecting with communities and forming collaborations, we celebrate the artistic achievements of people with experience of mental health issues, explore the relationship between creativity and the mind, and promote positive mental health and wellbeing.

The range of issues tackled is broad and events include film, music, theatre, literature, comedy and visual art ensuring there is something for everyone. Plus many of the tickets are free or low cost so that no-one is excluded.
