Tonight the Daydreamz Project’s performance, gallery and candlelight vigil known as Break the Silence, Stop the Violence turns five. “The whole event was birthed from expressive-arts workshops with women in a local shelter,” explains the Project’s Starr T. Hogan. “After nine months of exploring their inner voice, they said, ‘We want to break our silence.'”
“We started at a coffee shop and had their artwork and some of their poetry presented and invited some performers, and we outgrew the shop that night,” Hogan adds. “It’s a very healing and moving experience; even people just passing through the park are usually moved to stop and stay. It’s sort of magical.”
Stop by tonight from 6 to 9 p.m. at Confluence Park, 2200 15th Street; Break the Silence is free, but donations will be accepted. Visit www.daydreamzproject.org or call 303-927-6978.
