Emerson art show benefits local survivors of sexual violence

HAVEN’s annual art show, “The Art of Surviving,” returns to the Emerson Center for the Arts & Culture on Tuesday, April 23rd from 4–7pm. This event is put on every year in recognition of sexual assault awareness month. The evening will feature artwork created by survivors of intimate partner violence and sexual assault. This is a community event with the purpose of raising awareness about relationship violence and lifting up the voices of survivors in our community through creative expression. Listen to music, enjoy refreshments, and support your neighbors in the process!
For nearly four decades, HAVEN has been dedicated to providing quality service and advocacy for all domestic violence survivors in need. These services include survivor advocacy, legal advocacy, individual counseling, emergency shelter, a 24-hour support line, three support groups, and community education. These services are all vital to both intervention and prevention of domestic violence. HAVEN officially serves residents of Gallatin County, but extends services to anyone in a situation of domestic violence including people from other counties and out-of-state residents who are fleeing an abusive situation and need HAVEN’s assistance.
