Experience Wellspring’s Sources of Strength PhotoVoice Exhibit
In spring 2023, three Wellspring participants collaborated with Essential PhotoVoice on a group storytelling project, Sources of Strength. PhotoVoice is a creative way to invite people to share their often untold stories through photographs, reflection, and writing. Sources of Strength is the result of this collective exchange.
The exhibit premiered at Wellspring’s 2023 Spring Event and is on permanent display at our historic main campus. Experience these moving stories by watching the Sources of Strength companion video and by seeing the installation in person.
Contact Mary Hardwick by email or by phone at 978-281-3558 x300 to reserve your place.
This project was made possible with the collaboration of Essential Partners.
