dgArts is the main partner with NHS Dumfries and Galloway in the Healing Spaces project – creating arts for the new psychiatric hospital.  In addition to creating arts in the hospital environment, Healing Spaces is committed to generating arts opportunities when people return to their own homes and communities.  As part of all this,  ‘see me’ will showcase the entries to a Photography competition open to all but targeted at people with a lived experience of, or interest in, mental health issues.  The exhibition in the Midsteeple allows for the People’s Votes to be cast for the photographs on display.  Two prizewinning photographs, in Adult and Under-18 categories, have already been chosen and the winner of the Public Vote will join these two in being entered in the national competition. The winner will be announced in December.

‘see me’ will be open 10am to 4pm, admission free.
