An opportunity for local people in recovery or those who are interested in the exhibition and showing support for addiction and mental health recovery to come together, explore the art, hear local recovery updates, have a brew and socialise. At the end of the event VIA will lead a solidarity walk around Chester City as an act of advocacy for positive, visible recovery.

Samadhi will exclusively preview at Chester Visual Arts Space this September ahead of an extended exhibition for GM Recoverist Month (Portraits of Recovery) at The Turnpike Gallery in Leigh.
