    SOMOS | WE ARE

    June 22 - September 29, 2024

    Curators/Curadores: Catholic Community Services Farmworker Center | El Centro de Trabajadores del Campo

    For more on this exhibition, please visit this page.

    The exhibition SOMOS | WE ARE features a collection of diverse, colorful, inventive and exploratory artwork and crafts created by the youth who attend the Estudio de Arte para Niños del Centro de Trabajadores del Campo | Children’s Art Studio at the C.C.S. Farmworkers Center. In the estudio these student artists, ranging in age from 2 to 17, have the opportunity to explore the use of art materials, mediums and art principles at weekly workshops. The estudio is their place: in this ongoing journey the young artists are working together with teachers, staff, volunteers and family members to articulate through art, conversation and community the stories of their lives. This work, a culmination of a year of inventive, lively, joy-filled observation is an invitation from them to you - to “come and see who we are.”

    This exhibition is a testament to the powerful process of healing from trauma through a range of creative expressions. Brigid Collins Family Support Center and Skagit Domestic Violence & Sexual Assault Services have partnered to share art and writing created by survivors of traumas including: physical, sexual, emotional abuse, domestic violence, and neglect. We hope this exhibition illuminates the impact of the unique experiences of individuals in our community. We aim to broaden our community’s understanding of the prevalence of traumas experienced by fellow adults, young people, and children. This exhibition invites you to bear witness to the non-linear journey of healing and the deep resilience of our community members.
