Accessible venue. \nSeattle Women’s Commission to Host Community Art Show Spotlighting Healing and Resilience for Domestic Violence Awareness Month \nExhibition Opens October 2 in Capitol Hill \nSEATTLE (September 24\, 2025)—The Seattle Women’s Commission (SWC) invites the public to experience We Are the Ones We’ve Been Waiting For\, a moving community art show in honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Opening October 2\, and featured during the Capitol Hill Art Walk on October 9\, the exhibition creates space for healing\, reflection\, and solidarity through the power of art. \n“For me\, this show is about resilience\, courage\, and community. It’s about saying: we see you\, we believe you\, and we are in this together. My hope is that visitors leave feeling a sense of connection\, hope\, and possibility\,” said Talley Mills\, Gender-Based Violence Co-Chair of the Seattle Women’s Commission. \nAccording to the World Health Organization\, domestic violence continues to impact one in three women across the United States. The Seattle Women’s Commission prioritizes elevating survivor voices\, advocating for safety and justice\, and supporting opportunities for healing. This art show is part of that ongoing commitment—centering creativity\, connection\, and collective care. \nThe exhibition features local and immigrant artists whose work explores survival\, resilience\, and hope across a range of mediums\, from painting and photography to mixed media. By spotlighting artists with lived experience\, the show amplifies stories too often left unheard. Participating artists include: \n\nAudineh Asaf\nCrystal Barbre\nKierstan Craft\nJamie Curtismith\nJenny Danger\nGirlspit\nJennifer Leigh Harrison\nJody Joldersma\nHolly Ballard Martz\nShab Ottaviani\nKattypak\nSamaneh Sarchami\nLynn Schirmer\n\n\n“Survivors find power by coming together in support groups where they may engage in art as they rebuild their lives. In doing so\, they strengthen their voices and help create safety in our communities. The team at Domestic Abuse Women’s Network (DAWN) is very grateful for the Seattle Women’s Commission’s partnership through this event as we work to support\, empower\, and shelter survivors of domestic abuse across King County\,” said Gina Finley\, Executive Director of DAWN. \n“Partnerships like this expand the conversation beyond a single community\,” added Naseem Ghazanfari\, Co-Founder of the Iranian Women’s Institute for Life and Liberty (I-WILL) and member of the Seattle Women’s Commission. “Together\, we honor survival and resilience across cultures and remind our city that gender-based violence and gender apartheid are global struggles that require collective healing and solidarity.” \nThis program is supported in part by a grant from the Washington State Arts Commission.
