GrowLu (a portmanteau of \u201cGrow\u201d and \u201cGolu\u201d) reimagines the Indian Dussehra Golu tiered display as a secular, guided installation using a cultural scaffold as public mental health micro-infrastructure aligned with ICESCR rights to health and cultural participation. Five ascending tiers map Maslow\u2019s hierarchy of needs (physiological needs, safety, belonging, esteem, self-actualization), each using familiar artifacts and a standardized \u226430-word microcopy card format (headline, meaning, reflection prompt, and mechanism-linked next step). The design principle is one object\u2013one idea\u2013one action, inviting visitors to convert brief attention into a voiced micro-commitment. The AAAQ framework guided the design\u2014availability (low-cost, portability), accessibility (free walk-up access, child- and adult-eye-level placement, signposting to crisis support), acceptability (secular, non-pathologizing microcopy), and quality (standardized captions, facilitator training, fidelity checklist, process evaluation). Conceptualized by Augmenta Health, GrowLu debuted at Mental Health Santhe 4.0, hosted by the Department of Mental Health Education, National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro Sciences (NIMHANS), Bengaluru, India, on October 17 to 18, 2025. Over 2 days, &gt;5,000 visitors attended; 3,151 registered participants. The QR-linked reading guide received ~10.5k scans. Typical dwell time at the exhibit was ~45 to 60 seconds; volunteers invited visitors to name one feasible next step. Reported outcomes are practice-based process indicators (reach, dwell time, QR scans, brief conversations, voiced micro-commitments), not measured behavior change. Culture-adapted, rights-consistent, mechanism-informed micro-exhibits may offer a scalable pathway for stigma-safe engagement with heterogeneous audiences across community and civic settings, including high-footfall events.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/15248399261429964","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,24]],"date-time":"2026-03-24T03:39:00Z","timestamp":1774323540000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["GrowLu: Culture-Adapted Art as Public Mental Health Micro-Infrastructure for Community and Civic Engagement"],"prefix":"10.1177","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5786-0701","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sharmitha","family":"Krishnamurthy","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Augmenta Health Private Limited, Bengaluru, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-1943-4254","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohan","family":"Sunil Kumar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Augmenta Health Private Limited, Bengaluru, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-0485-9695","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dhriti S.","family":"Bharadwaj","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Augmenta Health Private Limited, Bengaluru, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-6830-1793","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tanuja","family":"V","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Augmenta Health Private Limited, Bengaluru, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-9162-0931","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nitya","family":"Dhruve","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Augmenta Health Private Limited, Bengaluru, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_1","volume-title":"The Mental Healthcare Act, 2017 (No. 10 of 2017)","author":"Government of India","year":"2017","unstructured":"Government of India.
