The Healing Arts Exhibit is an annual exhibition hosted by CAPS. The exhibit features the artwork of FAU students with the intention of highlighting the healing power of art, increasing visibility of CAPS, reducing stigma of mental health services, and increasing inclusivity across campus. We are super thrilled to invite the FAU community to our center for great food, good vibes, and even more Awesome Art. See you this Thursday, Feb 8th at 4PM. Don’t be late!
