Health Brigade partners with The Virginia Telemental Health Initiative (VTMHI). The initiative aims to expand access to mental health services for un- and under-insured individuals across the Commonwealth by working together with Virginia’s free and charitable clinics and pre-licensed mental health providers in the process of completing licensure.

For the first time, The Art Brigade opening included LIVE ART and LIVE MUSIC. Nationally-known artist Khalid Thompson created a painting accompanied by the magical music of Julian Jahmal Desta.

The painting was auctioned off for $350 on May 16 but will remain in the show until it closes in July.

Come by and see the exhibit at Health Brigade. Several paintings left for sale.
