On Friday, August 23rd and Saturday, August 24th, the Buckwild Gallery in Venice will be transformed into the Depressed Cake Shop, a pop-up bakery and art show benefiting the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Westside LA. Mental health issues are often stigmatized, but 1 in 4 people will suffer from some form of mental illness in their life. To raise awareness for depression and mental illness, the Depressed Cake Shop sells gray sweets that are brightly colored on the inside.
Visit the Depressed Cake Shop Facebook page for more information on this great event. Depression is a cause very close to my heart, so maybe I’ll see you there!
