Art as my strength

(Sacramento,CA)

I saw domestic violence going on in my home as a child. I stayed at a Women's shelter as a child and I have to say it was the first place where I found peace. I received counseling there through an Art program and was amazed that I could create things and express myself at the same time. As an adult, I went back and volunteered at that same organization for 4 years. Art has been my resilience and stronghold. I want to continue to raise awareness for this cause and do Art shows in the future for this cause specifically. Thank you...
