Urban Wilderness CIC are privileged to partner with Staffordshire Police and domestic violence charities to host an art exhibition in March 2026. This creative collaboration will provide a space for female victims of violence and abuse to explore their vulnerability and resilience through visual and creative expression.

You are welcome to participate by creating artwork as a survivor of domestic violence, a friend or family member of a survivor or connected to domestic violence in some way.

Anonymity is available and all work can be submitted without names.

Suggested artworks could be 3D, 2D, collage, mixed media, writing, spoken words.

Step into an inspiring in person gathering where stories come alive over warm coffee & cake. This event is all about embracing courage and walking a mile in each other's shoes.

Join us for heartfelt conversations, delightful treats, and a chance to connect with amazing people in a relaxed setting.

We look forward to seeing you there.

Deadline for artworks: 4 March 2026
