Through the lens of Film and Photography
CR8 Art Space

Washington, DC

Are you an artist and have a message you want to be seen/heard?! With a successful opening of 200 persons during our first night, Art of the Soul, an exhibition on the unspoken thoughts and feelings of women, have decided to extend this amazing exhibit with a focus on film and photography at the new art space CR8. We are looking for artists to share their film and photography that highlights FGM (female genital mutilation), abortion, domestic violence, and self-esteem/image specifically.

We want this exhibit to be more specific and if you have works or know someone who have works in these areas (locally, nationally, and as far out as we can go) please pass along!

Also, as a COMMUNITY exhibit/event, the goal is to offer workshops to the community for free! If you are a photographer and would like to host a workshop, an organization, artist, etc., contact Kaira Johnson at theartandsoul.dc@gmail.com

Be a part of something great by becoming an Art of the Soul featured artist. You have the option to sell your art and take part in our opening reception with over 150 expected guests where you can discuss your work, network, or explore future opportunities in the DC metropolitan area. With programming scheduled within the space throughout the life of the exhibit, Art of the Soul is more than just a collection of art but a voice for women and all others that have been oppressed.

If interested or if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to contact Kaira Johnson at theartandsoul.dc@gmail.com. To view the artists from the current exhibit and to get more information on our mission and events, please visitwww.artofthesouldc.info.
