SUMMARY:We Step Into the Light
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to announce an opportunity for our community to participate in an art exhibit to support survivors of sexual violence\, interpersonal violence\, or stalking.  We Step Into the Light is an art exhibit that seeks to inspire creativity that honors the healing process after an experience with sexual assault\, relationship or gender based violence\, or stalking.  The organizers of the exhibit are actively seeking volunteer artists and muses.  A Muse: anyone who has experienced sexual assault\, relationship or gender based violence\, or stalking. \nFor this event\, artists are paired with survivors who act as a muse for the art created; a piece that will celebrate the survivor. The piece should focus on the ambition\, goals\, and passions of the survivor rather than on their assault. Through a series of interactions\, the artist will be inspired by learning about the survivor and the piece will begin to take form. \nThe finished pieces are then gifted to the survivor as a forever reminder of their participation\, and more importantly\, the beautiful and meaningful life they lead. Through this project\, the hope is to offer a reminder of the strength\, beauty and power that we all possess\, even in the darkest of times.  The final art pieces will be on display on campus in April. More details to follow on the exhibit in the coming weeks. \nWe need artists and muses between now and February 10.  \nhttps://westepintothelight.com/participate

Although the assailant had been found guilty at trial\, the Supreme Court argued that because jeans are difficult to remove\, the assailant couldn’t have done so without the victim’s help. Sounds outrageous\, yet all over the world\, women and men who are victims of sexual assault continue to be disbelieved and accused of causing the assault due to their behavior… or fashion sense.

SUMMARY:We Step Into the Light
DESCRIPTION:April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month and we are excited to announce an opportunity for our community to participate in an art exhibit to support survivors of sexual violence\, interpersonal violence\, or stalking.  We Step Into the Light is an art exhibit that seeks to inspire creativity that honors the healing process after an experience with sexual assault\, relationship or gender based violence\, or stalking.  The organizers of the exhibit are actively seeking volunteer artists and muses.  A Muse: anyone who has experienced sexual assault\, relationship or gender based violence\, or stalking. \nFor this event\, artists are paired with survivors who act as a muse for the art created; a piece that will celebrate the survivor. The piece should focus on the ambition\, goals\, and passions of the survivor rather than on their assault. Through a series of interactions\, the artist will be inspired by learning about the survivor and the piece will begin to take form. \nThe finished pieces are then gifted to the survivor as a forever reminder of their participation\, and more importantly\, the beautiful and meaningful life they lead. Through this project\, the hope is to offer a reminder of the strength\, beauty and power that we all possess\, even in the darkest of times.  The final art pieces will be on display on campus in April. More details to follow on the exhibit in the coming weeks. \nWe need artists and muses between now and March 31.  \nFor more information and to register\, visit https://westepintothelight.com/participate
