The Hear Us NOW Exhibition is a community-based art event dedicated to confronting the pervasive issue of child sexual abuse. This exhibition brings together the powerful voices of survivors, shining a light on the profound and lasting impact this trauma has on individuals and the broader community. By sharing these stories and demanding justice, we hope to create a safer future for all children and foster a community that refuses to look away from the pain endured by survivors.
To make this exhibition possible, we need support for essential costs: transporting artworks within the city, providing shipping scholarships for artists, offering refreshments at the reception, printing materials, purchasing installation supplies, and covering website fees. Every contribution will help us create a space where survivors are heard, artists are supported, and the community can come together to confront this critical issue.
Child sexual abuse continues because we look away from that horror. It's distasteful to think about. It's ugly. Looking makes us feel complicit. But, it's actually LOOKING AWAY that makes us complicit. Not looking at the acts. Looking at the harm done. All the infinite wounds. Every moment of a life lost to suffering. Every choice taken away. Every piece of it. And, in seeing the full depth of harm brought about by each abusive act, against so many innocent and vulnerable children, it should become impossible to allow it to continue. Please join us in supporting this exhibition and standing with survivors. Your help can make a real difference.
