eNOugh: ARTS AGAINST ABUSE

eNOugh: ARTS AGAINST ABUSE is a performance of original music, theatre, film, poetry, photography, film, and more! This event raises money for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. All donations go to the RUN DOMESTIC VIOLENCE OUT OF TOWN organization and are dispersed among 10 very different, but equally amazing charities:

Arab American Family Services (AAFS)
Center for Advancing Domestic Peace
Chicago Metropolitan Battered Women's Network (CMBWN)
Connections for Abused Women and their Children(CAWC)
Family Rescue
Healthcare Alternative Systems
Metropolitan Family Services
SHALVA
South Suburban Family Shelter (SSFS)
Taking Back Our Lives

Some extra donations, if available, will be dispersed to The Drama Group, the theatre sponsoring this event, as well as The Sunflower Project, a multimodal artist organization based out of Chicago, IL. This organization primarily uses dance, with help from film and music, to educate the community about sexual assault, domestic violence, and dating abuse.

This benefit is directed by Kaleigh Michelle Wood. Performers and contributors include Ashleigh Ashton, Alexa Jerkatis, Leah Zieger, Maria Welser, Cora Lynn Swise, Nicole Collette, Tijen Valentina, Rebecca Bernstein, Lynne Clayton, Courtney Foschi, Melissa Vance, Paul McComas, Maya Kuper, and Cassandra Kaczor. Most of the works in this performance are original art works that cover many different mediums, and most of the artists are survivors, themselves.
