NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Local artists came together to support local and national mental health organizations on Monday night.
Mental Health Songwriter Night was held at AB in Hillsboro Village.
Organizer Zhaklina Spencer said shows benefit organizations such as Mental Health America of the MidSouth, The Refuge Center for Counseling, To Write Love On Her Arms, Project Semicolon, Backline.care, Nashville Rescue, TN Voices and individuals in need.
Since March 2022, she has raised over $3,400 for mental health through her songwriter’s nights.
Spencer's mission is to courageously inspire mental health support through music, art and community. She believes our vulnerability connects people to come together to grow and heal.
Young or old, we all love to play board and card games! Those games become even more important when you are indoors and don't have the ability to get outside, like patients in a hospital. Austin Pollack shares the story of students in a Nashville family who have helped re-launch the Red Wagon project to collect games for patients at the Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt.
