As the pandemic continues into a third year, in the midst of multiple global, political and social crises, the Embassy Cultural House recognizes the deep importance of mental health and wellness ​at this time. In collaboration with Euan Tait, a candidate in MA Counselling Psychology at Western University, our local international ECH community are encouraged to write to Euan for advice:

Do you feel like your own harshest critic? Is your artistic practice suffering, sapping you of joy or starting to feel like a friend you’ve lost touch with? Do you have any tricky, complex or simply baffling questions about life, mental health or anything? 
 
Try writing to Ask Euan, a future mental health professional with years of community mental health experience. If your question is selected you can expect a kind and reflective response to appear in the monthly publishing of this column. To ask a question, please send an email to embassyculturalhouse@gmail.com. All emails and questions will remain anonymous.

OUR STORY
Artists Jamelie Hassan and Ron Benner and jazz musician Eric Stach founded the Embassy Cultural House (1983-1990) located in the restaurant portion of the Embassy Hotel at 732 Dundas Street in East London. Other former members of the board were: Debrann Eastabrook, Henry Eastabrook, Sharron Forrest, Wyn Geleynse, Janice Gurney, Jean Hay (1929 - 2008), Doug Mitchell, Kim Moodie, Gerard Pas, Peter Rist, Wanda Sawicki, Jean Spence and Jennie White. In 2020, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Embassy Cultural House was re-envisioned as a virtual artist-run space and website. 

This project is supported by the Ontario Arts Council and the London Arts Council through the City of London's Community Arts Investment Program.
