Exhibit: Four Weeks of Anchor House Artists

Established in 1997 by Michael Tillyer, Anchor House of Artists' mission is to make and expand creative careers available to artists living with persistent mental illnesses, fight the social stigma that they face, and contribute to the cultural enrichment of Western Massachusetts and beyond.

Anchor House of Artists comprises a subsidized studio, sells collectable artworks, assists artists in making helpful linkages and accessing services and grants, offers public talks and events, and builds paths to creative opportunities.

This exhibit features the following artists:

Week 1: Kyle Mitchel: In Memorium
Week 2: Wendy Chicoine
Week 3: Peter Mischkin
Week 4: Kevin Bouricius, Genevieve Burnett, Adam Porth
