The Art of Hope unites the Birmingham community and local artists together for a night of suicide prevention awareness. The Art of Hope is the annual Fall educational and awareness event hosted by the Alabama Chapter American Foundation for Suicide Prevention Junior Board. This event allows local artists to express the effects of mental illness and show those who are struggling that they are not alone.

We hope to illuminate the struggles and triumphs of dealing with mental illness. Our aim is to create a safe space to encourage people to engage in conversations about mental health in the community and raise awareness of mental health issues.
