Raising Sakinah | Finding Peace: Saturday 25 March – Sunday 21 May 2023
An exhibition about transforming tragedy through creativity.
Raising Sakinah | Finding Peace honours the Shuhada, those taken from us on March 15, 2019. In the aftermath of the Mosques shootings, survivors and supporters joined Janneth Gil and collaborators to transform tragedy through creative community. Their responses immortalise their experiences and tributes artistically, inviting viewers to take action towards positive social change.
Find out more about the Darkness into Light project on Janneth Gil's website.
