Two copies of the exhibit exist to circulate anywhere
more information about same-sex couples is needed. We make it
easy for you to bring this informative art exhibit to your community.
All photos are framed and shipped in exhibit crates. Your group
is responsible for shipping costs and we can help you determine
what those would be. The goal is to show the exhibit in environments
where it has a chance to make a difference — public places
like churches, hospitals, universities, office buildings and the
like. To learn more about borrowing the exhibit contact
us.
We are now booking 2008-09 exhibitions of the framed photo/text
exhibit, Shall Not Be Recognized, which includes 30 portraits
of same-sex couples in committed, long-term relationships. If
you are associated with an organization that would be interested
in finding out more about sponsoring an exhibition, please contact
us.
Key responsibilities of sponsors of the exhibit*
Arrange for the exhibition venue — ideally, a location
where the exhibit will be seen by a significant number of
people who are not already comfortable with or supportive
of same-sex couples.
Decide on the duration of the exhibition — two weeks
to six weeks is typical, but shorter or longer periods can
be accommodated.
Cover the costs of shipping the exhibit materials to your
city — may be several hundred dollars, depending on
carrier and distance.
Make a donation to the Shall Not Be Recognized project fund.
The suggested amount is $250 to $600, depending on funds available
and the length of time the exhibit is on loan to your group.
All donations are tax deductible through the Cream City Foundation.
Publicize the exhibition.
Hang the exhibition, then take it down, repack it in the
cases provided, and ship it to its next destination.
*Complete sponsor responsibilities will be specified
in writing in the exhibition contract.
To become more familiar with the exhibit, you can view a slideshow
of the 30 photos. You can also view a pdf
which includes the 30 text panels that accompany the photos.
If you would like to have additional copies of the 20-minute
exhibit DVD mailed to you, please contact
us. It can also be downloaded.
