Human For Sale - Photos

Thanks to everyone for making our last event such a rich experience. We had a sold out crowd for the bus tour and a thought provoking show. We had a wonderful experience supporting Houston Rescue and Restore Coalition. Special thanks to Blue Planet Cafe and Grizaffi Coffee for being part of the event.

Many of you have asked about networking and upcoming events in the future. This past summer we spent time evaluating our next steps and we will be working on building our network in the coming months. Look for more opportunities to connect.

Fully Human?

Ayad Fadel

"Human for Sale" will be Sept 22nd starting at 6:30PM and Sept 24th at 7PM. For this event we've invited artists to explore the question, "What does it mean to be fully human?" Human Trafficking is a dark subject that diminishes humanity. Through artistic vision, we are hoping to inspire people to see human beings in a new light.

We are excited to have the following artist join us this month. Some are joining us for the first time. Some are returning with new works. Ayad Fadel's new work is featured in this post.

We hope the artistic dimension of this event will stir better dialogue and help us engage us envision a better future, one without human trafficking.

We will be featuring an art exhibit and experience following HRRC's "red flag" bus tour.
