This inspirational photographic exhibition is named after a unique project of the same name under the auspices of Givat Haviva, a non-profit educational institute in Israel, and highlights a selection of works created by Arab and Jewish Israeli high school students and women.

Through the project, the camera is a tool to bring these multicultural populations together and open up outlets for self-expression and group communication. The photographs reflect emotions and activities of daily life in the participants' communities, homes and with one another.

At the Puffin Cultural Forum’s gala opening reception, 20 members of the youth group will be present to discuss the project and its impact on their lives.

Regular gallery hours are Tuesdays through Thursdays, 12-4 PM or by appointment.
