In May 2011, Mental Health Month, FAST TRAC, a system of care initiative of the Clermont County Mental Health and Recovery Board, provided art supplies and support to youth to raise awareness about the importance of mental health and to nurture the social and emotional well being of children. During this day of “art action” called “My Feelings Are a Work of Art,” more than 900 children and youth and 300 adults across Clermont County participated in a national effort to use art to express their feelings. This exhibit is a partnership between FAST TRAC and the Park National Bank Art Gallery at UC Clermont College to highlight and showcase the effects of this day in mental health awareness in our community. 

The Park National Bank Art Gallery is located in the Snyder building on the UC Clermont College campus in Batavia at 4200 Clermont College Drive. Summer gallery hours are Monday-Thursday 7:30 a.m. – 6 p.m., Friday 7:30 a.m. – 4 p.m., and closed weekends through Labor Day.
