Conference: December 7 2017. Working together to ensure prejudice reduction

Working together to ensure prejudice reduction. The conference is part of the Beautiful Distress Art Manifestation on Mental Illness, an initiative of the Fifth Season Foundation and the Beautiful Distress Foundation. Together with artists, a translation is made of the world of psychiatry to a large audience that does not come in contact with mental illness or psychiatry on a daily basis.

The Beautiful Distress Foundation has organized artist residencies in the mental health department of Kings County Hospital in Brooklyn, New York since 2014. Beautiful Distress was inspired by a similar artist-in-residence program that the Fifth Season Foundation has organized for more than 20 years in a mental health institution in The Netherlands.
