'For Matthew and Others – Journeys with Schizophrenia' was a major exhibition which told the personal stories of people who live with the illness, through artworks, diaries and sketchbooks, video, film, personal possessions, poetry and performance.

This was a multi-site exhibition which also extended to other sites in New South Wales and Victoria. As well as works by contemporary artists such as Graeme Doyle, Richard Morrison and others, paintings by Derwent Lees, John Perceval, Joy Hester and Albert Tucker were also on display. Former SANE Board member, Simon Champ, and SANE Speakers, Sandy Jeffs and Richard McLean are also contributing to the exhibition.
