Children’s Art Exhibits & More
What do we do?
Soul of my Soul started holding mobile exhibits which takes visitors on a profound journey of collective grief. The plight of the Palestinian people is sensored in our media and public spaces. Our event raise awareness about what is happening in Palestine, allow our community to process their grief, and give our children an artistic outlet and voice. The artwork displayed is created by children in our local community.
We have expanded beyond art exhibits to provide more awareness and a variety of opportunities for people to enact change in their community.
