About
Overview
In recognition of Suicide Prevention and Awareness Month, The Good Stuff is an invitation to notice what makes life worth staying for. We're seeking artwork that captures the smaller, deeply personal things that bring comfort, connection, pleasure, or a reason to keep going: a perfectly made cup of coffee, the particular way sunlight enters a room, a dog asleep at your feet, a familiar face, an inside joke, a song you've played a thousand times. Your piece does not need to address suicide or mental health directly. All mediums and approaches are welcome. The exhibition will take place exclusively online through Artsy.
