Behavioral Health Art Show highlights individuals living with mental illness, substance use disorder

Wood County ADAMHS Promoting Community Wellbeing Alcohol Drug Addiction and Mental Health Services Board

The Wood County Alcohol, Drug Addiction, and Mental Health Services Board (WCADAMHS) will be hosting a free, all-ages welcome Behavioral Health Art Show on Friday (May 24) from 11 a.m.-3 p.m.

The art show, at the Wood County Museum at 13660 County Home Road in Bowling Green, will highlight physical artwork and poetry created by individuals living with mental illness and/or substance use disorder.

There will be several interactive sections throughout the show, including a writing workshop with local author and poet Kay Flowerz, and free giveaways.

The role of the WCADAMHS Board is to plan, fund and monitor services for people with serious and persistent mental illness and alcohol and other drug addictions throughout the county. The board and its member agencies are committed to providing the community with the highest quality of care. Most services offered are partially supported by Wood County levy funds and are accessible to all residents. Some services are provided, without cost, while others have a fee based on ability to pay.
