The Creative Arts Project is an outreach program promoting recovery and resiliency for individuals with mental illness and substance abuse disorders who live in Middle Tennessee. The organization fosters expression and therapy through art making, and is in preparations of assembling a full color, professional fine arts catalogue displaying artworks of all media completed by participants in the program.

Fellow jurors included Joseph Whitt, Stacey Irvin, and Emily Harper. The catalogue will be published by the Vanderbilt University Press, and will be available in late 2009 or early 2010.

Alysha's painting, Nocturne, was selected to be featured on the homepage of visionati.com, a creative showcase and social networking site for artists of all disciplines.
