Ah, if only I had some frequent flier miles, I'd go to London for the launch of the Little Episodes, an international art collective aimed at destigmatizing addiction, depression and mental illness through the arts.
For anyone reading this in the U.K., here are the launch details:
25th February 2010
Contemporary Urban Centre,
London Bridge Bankside,
81-83 Southwark Bridge Road, London, UK,
SE1 0NQ.
7pm - 1am
The event will feature musical performances, art exhibitions and will showcase material from the 'expression of depression' anthologies.
I contributed a poem, Invasion (written as C.A. Masterson). I urge you to participate in this worthy cause by buying a copy. I lost two cousins to suicide, so this is dear to my heart. Although I can't be there on February 25th, I will be there in spirit.
