Drawing from Maya Angelou’s poem Still I Rise, the intent of this art show is to document and share with the UCSB community the healing process of those who have faced violence, of all forms, struggled, and who find survival in creating.We will also have various art stations in which the community can participate in this healing process as well as create a space for activism and once again we can raise our voices to speak out against sexual assault and dating and domestic violence.
