Lively Arts Exhibit
February 2-14 @ YDL-Michigan Avenue
In Our Family is a museum-quality traveling photo-text exhibit about twenty families representing a breadth of diversity and family configurations including: adoptive and foster families; divorced and stepfamilies, single parent households, multiracial families, families facing chronic illness and death; families living with mental and physical disabilities; lesbian and gay-parented families; interfaith families, multigenerational households, and immigrant families.
Designed for audiences of all ages - from early childhood to adults - In Our Family challenges stereotypes and helps dismantle prejudice by celebrating and affirming differences of all kinds. The traveling photo-text rental exhibit consists of ready-to-hang framed photographs and text (including special K-2 text you can use for younger viewers). The positive and realistic photographs, along with the candid interviews with family members of all ages, affirm an inclusive and expansive vision of family life today. (Friends support)
