"WALK WITHOUT FEAR"  PSALM/WVCBL Exhibit

The Monongalia Art Center along with West Virginia Campaign to Ban Landmines and Cluster Bombs and PSALM: Proud Students Against Land Mines are hosting a photo exhibit and art installation, "WALK WITHOUT FEAR", January 13th-February 3rd, 2012. 

The exhibit consists of photographs taken in mine/cluster bomb affected regions of Cambodia and Laos by WVCBL/PSALM coordinator, Nora Sheets along with an art installation and artworks by PSALM students. Students designed a simulated mine field complete with mine field "danger" signs and tin cans painted to resemble landmines and cluster bombs. Painted shoes with information about landmines and cluster bombs were hung above the 'field".

Visitors to the exhibit opening reception, led by student gallery guides, viewed photographs of mine clearance teams in Cambodia and Laos as well as survivors and campaigners around the world. The opening reception hosted around 200 visitors…a record amount of visitors made all the more remarkable because of the severe West Virginia winter weather. The show was designed to raise awareness about landmines and cluster munitions around the world and the PUSH FOR PROGRESS on the Mine Ban Treaty in the United States. 

PSALM/WVCBL wishes to thank visitors and supporters as well as: MINE ACTION CANADA/INTERNATIONAL CAMPAIGN TO BAN LANDMINES/CLUSTER MUNITION COALITION for their support of our endeavors to "Push For Progress" in the USA! We also wish to thank: ARTICLE 22/PEACEBOMB and Landmines Blow! for assistance for this exhibit.
