Creative and Legal Psychiatric Advance Directives
Durham Art Asylum presents a workspace to learn about Creative and Legal Psychiatric Advance Directives. An advance directive articulates care you wish to receive (or not receive) if you become unable to advocate for yourself due to mental health challenges.
The Durham Art Asylum is a web of artists living with and loving through mental health challenges. We create and share resources we need to be well and make magic. Join us to work on a psychiatric advance directive that includes poetry, art, spaciousness, and prompts about safety, music, food, and systems of support that make and keep us well.
