Special Events

  • Volunteers Wanted for Art and Photo Project

    The Violence Against Women Prevention Program is looking for survivors of sexual or gender-based violence or those who have been touched by this issue to participate in an art and photo exhibit that highlights how these issues affect UConn students. We are looking for volunteers to participate in any of the following ways:

    • Submit art, photos, or poems about their experiences
    • Submit messages of support or encouragement to victim-survivors
    • Be photographed (your face can be obscured if you wish to be anonymous) while holding signs with quotes or messages related to their experience with sexual or gender-based violence. (Inspired by the Project Unbreakable photo project)

    The photos and artwork will be displayed together in a semi-public exhibit at the Homer Babbdige Library, set up so that only those who choose to enter the exhibit will be able to see the art and photos. 

    If you or someone you know might be interested in participating, please email projectunbreakable@uconn.edu for more information.
