FREDERICKSBURG — A new art exhibit in will showcase images of mental illness and recovery.

Hosted by the Rappahannock Area Community Services Board, the exhibit is called “The Art of Recovery” and showcases art that goes beyond language to offer a glimpse of the journey through mental illness to recovery.

“The Art of Recovery provides an opportunity for individuals living with mental health challenges to combat stigma and align with the community in promoting recovery,” said Amy Rippy, coordinator of Kenmore Club, RACSB’s day program for adults with severe and persistent mental illness. “Artists from across the state participate in the annual art show. RACSB is fortunate to benefit from statewide participation and the exceptional partnership of artists Gabe and Scarlet Pons.”
