SPEAK OUT FOR HUMAN RIGHTS is an artistic endeavor
to create a need for enforcing, protecting and raising awareness
for Human Rights around the world.
Last December 5th 2009,
some Artists of Santa Cruz County put together a show relating
to Human Rights from each of their imaginative perspectives.
The show was so beautiful that it touched us and inspired
us to want to share it with more than just our community.
Art is a window to
the beauty that lies within us. There is a nobility that
true art is associated with, a nobility of spirit, the gift
that each one of us must give, to add to in our own way,
to the complexity of the human description. Art offers a
very unique opportunity to the human rights movement, it
brings to light the often invisible perspective of actions
that we have and share every day. It inspires one to look
beyond while holding on to the desire to make things better
for us all, to value our Human Rights.
We are hoping to encourage
Artists from all over the world to raise your instruments
of expression and join us in “SPEAKING OUT FOR HUMAN
RIGHTS” Our show convinced us that your voices must
be heard. We want to dialogue with you. We want to see your
show. We want everyone to be able to share their talents
and perspectives. All of us that are inspired by the Declaration
of Human Rights must raise our collective voices. A ground
swell of Artistic energy, inspired by the need for all nations,
to once again, re-commit to the Treaty they signed, that
obligated them to the Declaration and all that it stands
for: an outpouring of inspiration, for and about Human Rights.
I think that we can
accomplish this easily without much stress or too much time.
Are you interested in becoming part of this?
We hope you can join
this “Movement”, our hope is to re-inspire the
world, one show at a time.
