Melbourne Anglican Preventing Violence Against Women Program (PVAW), in partnership with Holstep Health and St Margaret’s Anglican Church – Eltham, warmly invites you to attend their upcoming exhibition:

Art as Healing: Voices Against Violence

St Paul’s Cathedral, Transept Gallery, Melbourne
Running May – June 2026

This powerful exhibition showcases artwork created by members of Holstep Health’s Living Well Family Violence Group. The artists come from diverse backgrounds and lived experiences. Each artist has been impacted by family violence, and many are survivors.

Through art, they explore themes of healing, transformation, resilience, rebirth, and hope sharing the message that despite the trauma of violence, the strength, courage, and faith of women and children will prevail.

To celebrate the exhibition and raise vital funds for the PVAW Program, we invite you to join us for a special evening.

Guests will enjoy live music and light refreshments while viewing the exhibition and hearing from guest speakers on family violence and the role of the Anglican Church in prevention efforts.

Speakers include:

Helen Bolton, CEO, Respect Victoria
Reverend Ali McGrice, St Jude’s, Carlton
Louise Juracich, survivor advocate

The evening will also be an opportunity to learn more about the Diocese’s Preventing Violence Against Women Program and how you can support this important work.

Please share this invite with your church, friends and colleagues. This is a public event, and all are warmly welcome!
