“If my EUS could speak…” Event on Art and Mental Health Since the purpose of the PAS Association is to work consciously and integrally with the human nature of being, we cannot remain indifferent to the state of general mental health in which people find themselves today. This event represents one of our community initiatives to help lower the statistical rates of cases reported as “mental illness”. There will be gatherings and other moments of reflection and sharing, where art and mental health come together as raw material. This event will feature the exhibition and special participation of the artist José Maria Oliveira.
