As I posted previously, jokaydia will be hosting a Blueday Party to celebrate World Mental Health Day and raise awareness of depression and anxiety, as part of the fabulous Blueday 2008 Initiative being supported by the Australian social media community. And…. we need you!
If you’d like to help to plan the celebrations, please join us from 8:30pm – 9:30pm AEST on Tues 7th Oct (2:30am SLT, Check your local time here!) at Bar jokaydia (SLurl) to suggest ideas, contribute some artwork or information, or help plan the party activities!
You could:
- Create a Blueday themed party gift
- Come up with a Blueday themed party game
- Share a personal story at the event
- Contribute some artwork, poster or display item
- Suggest a mental health related landmark to add to the Blueday tour wall
- … or anything you think would be fun, informative, or entertaining!
I really hope we can make this a fun, community-oriented event and I’m looking forward to hearing lots of Blueday ideas! Email me or IM jokay Wollongong inworld if you need any further info!
