Reflecting Through Art is an exhibition under the auspices of Cork Mental Health Foundation and began in 1996. Open to anyone using the mental health services; the project aims to encourage creative activity, raise the profile of the artists, and increase awareness of their talents. Through the use art, the project also acts as a bridge between artists and the wider community.

The Exhibition is launched each year at Cork International Airport and remains there for 6 weeks. From here the exhibition will tour a number of venues in Cork City and County.

Each piece of work will be framed and catalogued and will be sold with all the proceeds going directly to the artist.
The catalogue will be numbered and contains photographs of the work and some information on the artist and or the picture.
