"Inside.Out: Living Somewhere in between Two Worlds," various artists, mixed media

This exhibit displays works created by Asian immigrant mental health consumers from the Psychosocial Rehabilitation Program and art therapy groups. The pieces relate past events, current experiences, and hopes for the future. Our immigrant members, originally from countries across Asia, thrive on the opportunity to express their inner experiences non-verbally. With the support of a resident art therapist, Ha Tran, consumers are able to explore the lingering effects of war, identity in America, and living with mental illness. Since 1978 Asian Human Services has been providing quality and compassionate care to the Asian American community of metropolitan Chicago
