︎ Ziyao Lin designed her workshop specifically for those of Chinese heritage. Workshop participants were given opportunities to discuss Chinese cultural context and its relationship to mental health and invited to express themselves using drawing techniques. Ziyao Lin’s Art for Health MK workshops are now complete and started in April at an arts venue in Wolverton, Milton Keynes.
