Artists of NKLF
Nathan and Kiyoko Lerner Foundation - Chicago

The Nathan and Kiyoko Lerner Foundation (NKLF) was initiated in September 1997. The mission of the NKLF is to recognize and promote the unique creativity of people with mental illness.
Through the Henry Darger Center, the Foundation strives to identify people with psychiatric symptoms who possess a unique artistic vision; to provide an ongoing, nurturing environment that stimulates their creative growth; and to encourage public appreciation of the creativity of people with psychiatric illness through exhibitions and educational programs. The artists participate through Thresholds, a large Chicago area mental health agency.

The work of the artists is validated by the exhibitions, and they receive positive reinforcement through the experience of seeing their own work on display and hearing other people’s reactions to it.
