We Are Family- What does Family mean to you? Community Art Initiative

Our families are a haven for many—a place of safety, comfort, and love. The hearth and home of family life exist without condition, and if endangered or lost altogether, we feel it deeply.

Through the upheavals and destabilizing effects of the pandemic, Family has taken on greater importance, revealing how the idea of Family extends beyond the genetic to embrace what is essential and most beautiful about our love for one another.

In this exhibition, the Thames Art Gallery invites you to respond to your experience of Family through photography. Photography is an excellent medium for storytelling, and we want to see the image that best expresses the experience of Family in your life.

Please submit one to two photograph(s) in jpg form along with a completed submission form to CKartgallery@chatham-kent.ca. All images will be printed and displayed in the Chatham Cultural Centre from January 29, 2022 through March 26, 2022
