Embracing the Light

A new mural is coming to St Christopher’s Hospital for Children!

This mural is part of Embracing the Light, a two-year project focused on suicide awareness. The design drew from engagement that included mindful writing workshops, a collaborative performance with First Person Arts, and a steering committee. The goal of the mural is to raise awareness and access to mental health resources.

If you or a loved one are experiencing a suicidal crisis or emotional distress, call or text 988.

Join artist James Burns and Mural Arts Philadelphia for a community paint day. This free and easy activity is great for all ages, and is a chance to help make a public artwork.
