Book Signing: "Big Picture Book of Art"

Local Atlanta artist Jerome Lawrence will discuss his art and his struggle with mental illness.  His vibrant, cheerful painting titled "Tulips are People II," was featured on the Carter Center's 2008 holiday card.  Lawrence was selected not only for his artistic skill, but also because his life of recovery with schizophrenia is a message of hope for others struggling with mental illness.

Personalized copies of Lawrence's "Big Picture Book of Art" will be available for purchase
