Not Just Another Festival

---

Cheeky Fest is social impact.   We connect in person through the arts to help people with mental health challenges and those struggling with unemployment / to find & get paid fairly for the work they love to do.

We find our voices, express ourselves, discover how we coexist with society, manage our mental health, challenge stigma, foster empathy by listening to each other's stories, build friendships, share experiences, create & collaborate with people and develop & apply skills. 

For this to be the best experience for you - somewhere where you actually want to be, share, engage and connect with others, everyone needs to help curate and grow it. 

Introduce members to more people, unlock valuable collaborations, and develop fresh ideas & practices.  Invite 5 new members & add to what this community can accomplish together.  Get Cheeky & help make this happen.  

Tell us what you're working on, struggling with, what your goals are.  Share a story, experience, or idea to help other members can learn from to make better decisions.  We’d love to hear your story, help you share it and connect with others.
