Mutual Ground art show in Aurora

Mutual Ground, Inc. will hold its "Survivors' Art Show" from 6 to 9 p.m. April 1 at the Richard and Gina Santori Public Library of Aurora, 101 S. River St. The show coincides with both "Sexual Assault Awareness Month" and First Fridays events in downtown Aurora.

In addition to art, the event will include musical performances, poetry readings and a short theatrical piece. Art exhibited will include pieces completed by Mutual Ground's clients as part of their healing journey and art contributed by community members interested in supporting Mutual Ground and raising awareness about sexual assault/abuse issues.

The exhibit will include a silent art auction of work by area artists. The auction is denim-themed* and focuses on the topics of healing, growth, strength, recovery and survival. All proceeds will directly benefit Mutual Ground, a nonprofit group that focuses on prevention, intervention and ongoing support to victims of domestic and sexual violence.
