SisterWorks
The women that SisterWorks works with are the most vulnerable migrants. They have been marginalized due to a lack of identity, language barriers, lack of western culture knowledge, poor employment skills and being the carers of their families. They face long-term unemployment which exacerbates social issues. With on-going support, this vulnerability can be lifted and not become a lifetime issue.
Veteran Art Movement
The emerging Veteran Art Movement is not an organization but a decentralized network of veterans committed to using creative practices to transform themselves and American society.
Patrick Dougherty – Artist
Patrick Dougherty, a sculptor who weaves tree saplings into whirling, animated shapes that resemble tumbleweeds or gusts of wind, likes to say that his first artwork was his house.
