In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, Maps Counseling Services will hold its annual Wellness Festival Saturday, May 21, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., rain or shine, at the United Church of Christ at 23 Central Square in Keene.
It is open to adults, children and families. The festival will provide opportunities to promote physical, mental and spiritual health. There will be activities for children and families in the park, opportunities to participate in movement classes and spiritual offerings, as well as creative expression activities.
Many of the offerings are scheduled for a specific time during the day, so check the event page at mapsnh.org for details. Vendors will be selling items that promote wellness. There will also be a raffle table with prizes donated by local craftspeople.
The festival is free, and donations are accepted. All proceeds will be allocated to the Hope and Healing Fund that provides financial subsidies for clients who are uninsured or under-insured so that they have access to mental health treatment at Maps Counseling Services, both at the Keene and Peterborough offices.
For more information, go to mapsnh.org or the Maps Counseling Services page on Facebook. The United Church of Christ is mask-affirming when people are inside the church.
