►ABOUT THE PEACELOVE STORYTELLERS EVENT
On May 19th, 2016 the Peace of Mind Storytellers event brought together leaders in the mental wellness space to share their stories and the work they are doing to help create peace of mind in the world. The event featured a full day of compelling storytellers, live performances, food, cocktail party, opportunities to meet the speakers, and a lively atmosphere. The day was hosted at Rhode Island College, with all storytelling in Sapinsley Hall and breakout sessions at ALEX AND ANI Hall.

Stories have the power to positively transform the way we think about mental health which is why 100% of the proceeds from this event supports CREATORS, providing life-changing expressive arts experiences to communities in need.
