I need help to be able to help
Apr 28, 2022
First story
I am a Lebanese woman, I have graduated my masters in Fine Arts. As it is clear Lebanon is a sectarian, toxic masculinity, oppressed, discriminating type of country. The country is falling apart, economically, culturally, emotionally, and in all aspects and forms. The bomb that shook Beirut on the 4th of august was a wake up call to many of how disgustingly bad male ruling is. I have been trying for a year now, to open up an organization to invest in women's individuality and originality in conservative areas. To offer art therapy workshops to ease women's lives and embrace their experiences as well as teach them to fight and not be afraid to express themselves. I have been fighting to make my project a reality, to implement equality and healthy self-expression through arts and culture. No funds or grants are given to help, I only ask if any of you have any helpful information for me, I ask you to share it. Even if the Arts do not seem as a way of aiding oppressed women, trust me, they are. The world of Art breaks all convictions and sets the person free, with our goal to exhibit and let these women's art be known, we will change society and mentality gradually. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you amazing women.
