Souls Shot Portrait Project Dedication

Friends Ending Gun Violence Collaborative member Molly Grace Hicks (Old Haverford MM) will be sharing music for the dedication of the Souls Shot Portrait Project exhibition at Beth Am Israel Synagogue.

This project links fine artists with families or friends of victims of gun violence. The artists meet with the victims’ loved ones to learn about the lives they lived. The goal of the Souls Shot Portrait Project is to present diverse works that in some way relay graphically, or through narrative, the essence of the person being portrayed.

The mission is to bring attention to and memorialize the lives lost and tragically altered due to gun violence. Portraits have the unique ability to call out the souls and profoundly affect those who see them.
