CMHA Cash Calendar Call for Artwork

What Supports Your Mental Health!

We couldn’t be more excited to announce the opening of the #CMHACashCalendar Artwork Call!

This is our calendars 31st year and just last year we received hundreds of submissions from people just like you. Paintings, Photography, Poetry, Sculptures, Craft work of all kinds, however you express yourself we’d be honored if you shared a submission!

Our Art Call is an open invitation to anyone in Saskatchewan to submit up to 3 pieces of artwork .

Each submission should be connected to mental health in some way. Do you paint to de-stress, or maybe you dance to feel connected with a partner, or maybe you like to draw so you can give away something special that makes a friend smile? However you embrace the arts and your mental well-being we’d love to hear from you!
