2nd ANNUAL VOICES OF DV ART AND MEDIA EXHIBITION
OCTOBER 15, 2016 - NOVEMBER 13, 2016
October is Domestic Violence Awareness month. As a means of raising awareness about Domestic Violence, ART247 is hosting the 2nd annual "Voices of DV" Exhibition.
CALL FOR ARTISTS - ENTRY FORM
(No Entry Fee)
The exhibit's goal will be to feature works by individuals whose lives were touched by domestic violence. The pieces - from paintings, to drawings, photography, and mixed media - will touch on a range of emotions and experiences by the points of view of those who have been confronted with domestic violence in some form in their own lives directly, through the direct or indirect experiences of friends or family, and/or by emergency first response experiences.
In many cases, the cycle of abuse relies heavily on the abuse remaining a secret and a topic of taboo in order to enable abuse to perpetuate behind closed doors... we ask you to please submit your work and a brief paragraph - your "voice" - to this exhibition to help open doors, open discussions, and shine a light on this important topic.
