Thursday, June 20th, Haitian American Artist Sophia Domeville continues her creative arts workshop at Safe Space NYC in Queens. This session was centered around teaching students how to create fabric pictographs/collages and tell story on Aids Awareness in their community for the first annual, “For Queens Only” Young Women’s Empowerment Retreat.
This full day retreat serviced at-risk female youth between the ages of 16 to 24 educating and empowering the female guests on HIV/Aids awareness and prevention, self esteem/self love and social & business etiquette.
The Mural can currently be viewed within the offices of Safe Space NYC in Queens.
Here are some photos from her workshop!
