Head to Health is about promoting mental wellbeing and creating safe spaces, and believe that the power of art can help us achieve this.
Here's the deal. They are looking to display the artwork of the traditional owners at Ipswich Head to Health centre.
They are hoping that this display will make First Nations people feel welcomed, safe and at home.
