vi·be·well /ˈvīb wel/ verb, noun, lifestyle, mood
SCROLL DOWN
To feel good while being authentically you, being in tune with how you’re feeling, knowing you have support, using creativity as tool to a healthy mindset, and accepting who you are, feels and all.
A community where it’s cool to not be okay sometimes — and even cooler to support each other through it
Example: “I was stressing today about some real stuff my family is going through, so I pulled up to the beach, listened to some music, and wrote some words down to help me vibewell.”
Synonyms: express yourself, find your people, create without judgment, live without fear, express your emotions through art, community healing, authentic connections
Antonyms: burned out, trying to be perfect, toxic positivity, doom scrolling, going through it—alone.
VibeWell VC is about combining the transformative power of arts and culture with mental health awareness to create stronger, more connected communities across Ventura County.
This initiative represents a collaboration between The County of Ventura’s Arts and Culture unit and Ventura County Behavioral Health. Together, we’re working with the creative community to make mental health resources more accessible while reducing
the stigma that often prevents people from seeking support.
Our approach is community-centered and creative. We believe that artistic and cultural experiences have a unique ability to foster meaningful conversations, build connections, and promote wellbeing in ways that traditional approaches sometimes cannot.
What We Focus On
Community engagement through creative programming
Public education that reduces mental health stigma
Awareness building via artistic and cultural experiences
Overall wellbeing for individuals and communities
