The 2024 Gallery of Hope: Artistic Expressions of Recovery Across the Nation
Recognizing the transformative power of creative arts in advancing recovery, in May 2024, the Office of Recovery launched the Gallery of Hope, inviting visual art submissions from individuals with lived experience and their families.
This initiative raises public awareness and understanding of the many contributions that people in recovery bring to our lives by offering a platform for creative expression as a means of connection, healing, and empowerment. By showcasing art as a tool for growth and self-discovery, the project seeks to break down societal stigmas and foster greater understanding and support.
The digital Gallery of Hope: Artistic Expressions of Recovery Across the Nation features over 280 selected artworks and is open for viewing until September 30, 2024 in celebration of National Recovery Month. View the submission criteria.
