Musical minds

Music and mental health come together in Stronger Than Stigma’s fourth Concert + Conversation. The event is a fundraiser for the advocacy organization, but also a rare fusion of entertainment and candid explorations of mental health challenges. Staged at Blue Jay Listening Room in Jacksonville Beach, the event features live music by Rambler Kane and Three Leg Cat, followed by a moderated panel discussion on the musicians’ own experiences, and the interplay between artistry and psychological well-being. Tickets for the “concert-meets-couch” event benefit the local organization.

Guests:

• Gabrielle Magid, founder and CEO of Stronger Than Stigma
• Rambler Kane, singer/songwriter
