// Description //
This documentary of intimate concerts and interviews with Anchorage-based musicians Photonak and The Forest That Never Sleeps provides a place for artists to perform their music and explore themes of mental health, creativity, inspiration, and finding community. This project highlights talented local musicians while also providing a message of hope for those who are struggling with feelings of isolation, depression, and hopelessness. Normalizing the discussion of mental health can make it easier for those who need help to talk about it, which is why Anchorage Concerts has partnered with NAMI Anchorage, John Larson, and, O’Hara Shipe for this Community Artist Project during Mental Health Awareness Month. The mini documentary will be approximately 1 hour followed by a 30 minute panel discussion from John's Home Studio with artists O'Hara Shipe, Kat Moore, Jeremy Egger, and Jason Lessard of NAMI Anchorage. In lieu of a ticket fee, we encourage you to donate directly to NAMI Anchorage through PayPal.
