Still Here

Exhibition runs: November 2nd–13th, 2016
Opening reception: Wednesday, November 2nd, 6–9 pm

Still Here is a collection of photographs and art from gay and bisexual men affected by suicide, who through their experiences and willingness to tell their stories, have
sought to raise awareness about depression and suicide in the gay and bisexual male community.

Authentic, heartfelt, sometimes raw and always honest, the strength to share such vulnerabilities and resilience are integral to raising awareness and reducing shame and stigma about suicide. This powerful exhibit is intended to start a conversation about suicide in the gay and bisexual community as a means of lobbying for targeted suicide prevention programs for gay and bisexual men in British Columbia.

This exhibit is a project of the Men’s Health Research program at the University of British Columbia with financial support from Movember and the School of Nursing
at the University of British Columbia.
