Seeking Safety, Creating Change
KIND's art exhibit, Seeking Safety, Creating Change, features drawings, paintings, and prints by KIND clients and offers a glimpse into their migration journeys toward freedom from fear. KIND shares these important works with a wide range of audiences as a national traveling exhibition to showcase our clients’ talents and to promote understanding of unaccompanied children, their need for protection, and their contributions to our communities.
KIND's Traveling Art Exhibit was proudly featured at the Art on Paper New York Fair earlier in September, highlighting artwork by children and youth from countries like Afghanistan, Honduras, and El Salvador. Their powerful pieces capture personal migration journeys and emotional experiences. With over 100 galleries and 20,000 visitors, the fair provided a unique platform to showcase the creativity and resilience of unaccompanied children as they navigate life in a new country.
As part of KIND’s annual gala, Coming Together for Children Alone, Kids in Need of Defense debuted its art exhibit, Seeking Safety, Creating Change, created by unaccompanied children and youth.
