Hear Our Voices Community Art Exhibit and Auction

Safehouse Progressive Alliance for Nonviolence (SPAN) is proud to follow our successful first year art project with the 2nd Annual Hear Our Voices Community Art Project in October 2017.  October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month so the project will end on October 25th with a silent auction and reception sponsored by Elevations Credit Union. 

This project is dedicated to giving artistic representation to the experience of surviving and transcending intimate partner violence. The Hear Our Voices project asks artists from around Boulder County to contribute an art piece.  The idea and feeling of the art project is up to the individual artist but it should be “inspired” by a survivor story or a personal situation of violence they are aware of and can react to.  The thinking behind the art piece is simple: whether directly affected or not we are all exposed to violence and need to overcome our feelings to violence every day. Whether in the news, locally, personally or professionally.  We want artists to take those feelings and create a piece that will inspire and tell stories to others. Our motto at SPAN is healing, hope and opportunity. What is yours?
