Nightlight was born out of the stories of our team members and our own journeys with mental health. We acknowledge that many among us are in the midst of this struggle, while others are providing support to someone close to us who is.
Our hope is that Nightlight serves as a reminder that there is always hope to be found in adversity, and strength to be found in community.
That is why Dreambox Collective chose to support batyr with the proceeds of Nightlight.
batyr is a for purpose preventative mental health organisation created and driven by young people, for young people. batyr works to smash the stigma surrounding mental ill-health and empower young people to reach out for support.
batyr does this by running programs within schools and universities for young people. To find out more, visit batyr.com.au
If you are having a difficult time and looking for support, please contact
Lifeline on 13 11 14.
Some of your thoughts...
Nightlight feels like having a summer swim in space at 2am with your close companion that you haven't seen in a year, sharing your lightest dreams and darkest anxieties. The artworks, music, and presentation are gorgeous, and the poems glimmer with hope born from uncertainty.
I wish to one day make art, poetry, and music as beautiful as Nightlight!! Congratulations on the launch!!!
