Artlink Central coordinates the regional programme for Forth Valley for the Scottish Mental Health Arts and Film Festival, working in partnership with a range of arts and mental health providers, voluntary and public sector partners.

The Scottish Mental Health Arts and Film Festival will take place across Scotland each October.

The Scottish Mental Health Arts and Film Festival aims to transform social attitudes towards mental health. Now in its fourth year the festival has grown to become one of Scotland’s most significant cultural events.

Taking over venues across the country throughout October, the multi-arts festival aims to promote positive mental health in the context of equality and social justice, explore the relationship between the mind and creativity and create a dialogue with the public, the media and the arts about what mental health means to us all.
