"Getting lost in art was a new pleasure where I never thought I would again feel joy" - Feedback from one participant during the first Pop-Up Studio for Sussex Partnership's Make Your Mark Year Of Drawing project. Over the coming months I am going to setting up a series of Pop-Up Studios to engage staff, service users and carers in drawing and mark-making at different settings across Sussex Partnerships mental health NHS Trust. The workshops will be open and flexible and offer participants to explore drawing and mark making in a variety of ways. The emphasis is on well being and providing a space for people to engage with the activities in whatever way they want to.
