Sexual Assault Response Service of Southern Maine will be holding a Sexual Assault Awareness Month Survivor Art Exhibit and Reception during the month of April (location, dates and times- TBD). SARSSM is calling all survivors who would like to show case their art in the exhibit. The submissions can range from a variety of topics of your choosing! Some examples might be the #MeToo Movement, survivor empowerment, and social justice issues. We are prompting folks to take a creative liberty in regards to the art piece they choose to make/show. All artists can wish to remain confidential, however, anonymity will not be an option, as the folks organizing this event will need to have contact information for the artist.
