Voices & Visions Creative Writing and Art Exhibit at Longview Farm

The Home for Little Wanderers invites the community to a free art

and creative writing exhibit. The Home’s 24th

Annual Voices & Visions Creative Writing and Art Exhibit
marks its

second year in Walpole at the non-profit’s Longview Farm

Campus, 399 Lincoln Road, Walpole, MA on Thursday,

May 15
from 5-7 p.m. and Friday, May 16, 2014 from 1 p.m. – 4

p.m.





 





This exhibit

is open to the public and features artwork from children in The Home’s

residential and special education programs. This year’s theme, “I Dream a World,” will be brought to

life through the children’s unique voices and visions as they recreate

memorable dream sequences, delve into the subconscious and the surreal, and

reflect upon their hopes and aspirations for a better, brighter, more peaceful

world. Join us as we

embark on an odyssey inside the caring and insightful minds of children as we

celebrate The Home and its role in helping youth on their personal journey

toward a brighter future. Voices

& Visions is an innovative year-long art project, which teaches positive

ways of self-expression and encourages artistic development in children with

emotional and behavioral challenges. The exhibit is a preview of the artwork

that will be on display at The Home’s annual Voices & Visions fundraising gala on May 21, 2014 at the Seaport World Trade Center in

Boston.

Every child in The Home’s care has a story to tell. Creative writing and

visual arts provide a safe outlet for each to express their pain and fears, confront

their challenges and imagine what is possible. Thanks to The Home’s supporters,

we are able to enhance

programming for children in many ways, including expanding visual arts, music

and vocational education, and implementing a health and wellness initiative.
