Launch of Women's Aid Art Exhibition

Yesterday, I attended the launch of an exhibition of artwork, poetry and video by women and children who have experience of domestic violence. 

The exhibition at the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum provides an opportunity to shared the impact of domestic violence on people's lives with a wider audience, promoting awareness and increased understanding.

The displays located on the ground floor of Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum.

During the launch, there was singing which echoed around the gallery and attracted onlookers and visitors to the exhibition area. 


I hope that people find their way to the art work and get a chance to watch the video. It is a very effective way to tell the story of how domestic abuse affects children.


Poem by a women from a refuge.
