Last month volunteers from our London Hub site participated in a team Community Day initiative. Partnering with a long-term charity partner, Hospital Rooms, volunteers took shifts and painted a mural over one week, located at Hauser & Wirth. Like There Is Hope And I Can Dream Of Another World is the finished result, and the mural will be housed in a brand new purpose-built mental institution currently in construction.
The artist, Mark Titchner was inspired to create this piece after hearing a phrase in an interview with Julia Foxon, who has lived experience of mental health services conducted by Hospital Rooms Research Assistant Laura Cundall in response to the question “How would you hope an artwork in a mental health hospital would make you feel?”
We created a video to capture moments in time during the one-week volunteer period. Perhaps this inspires a team Community Day for you too? Or something that you might want to do as an individual.

We really want everyone to take their Community Day no matter where you are in the Company…..Colart cares and this is your chance to show you care. Being part of something bigger with a sense of purpose always feels good!
