ARE THEY REALLY OK? ASK THEM TODAY.
Cathedral Square is proudly supporting R U OK? day with the installation of a large scale mural artwork to share this year’s message: ‘Are they really ok? Ask them today.’
In partnership with Perth artist, Luke O’Donohoe the installation encourages everyone to meaningfully connect with the people around them and start a conversation that could change a life.
Thursday 9th September is a national day of action, reinforcing the importance of staying connected with your friends, family and colleagues through all life’s ups and downs, big or small.
Visit Cathedral Square to view the artwork, bring a friend, enjoy a free coffee on us (this Thursday 9th September from 10AM at Telegram*) and start a conversation.
