GALLERIES

​

• Create 12 unique galleries, each with themes on coping skills, mental health resources, and engaging activities.

• Design each gallery with vinyl wraps or hand-painted by me, featuring my doodling and zentangle designs—effective coping skills I use to manage stress and anxiety.

• Ensure galleries are self-standing and moveable, allowing for easy relocation without environmental damage.
