Partner Opportunities
Out From The Mist provides a platform for people with lived experience of mental ill health to share their stories through creative expression.
The competition invites a different kind of narrative, moving beyond limiting stereotypes of “the derelict” or “the hero,” and instead reflecting the diverse, nuanced realities that exist in between.
More than a campaign, Out From The Mist is a global platform for real stories and meaningful impact.
By partnering with the initiative, your organisation aligns with a respected, lived experience led movement that is reshaping how mental health is understood and discussed. It offers the opportunity to connect with an engaged international audience, demonstrate genuine commitment to social impact, and be part of a high-quality, culturally significant event during Australia’s Mental Health Week.
