THE COUNTDOWN PUBLIC ART PROJECT is a
community-wide initiative in Renfrew County, Ontario to create a permanent
public art monument to honour survivors of sexual violence – the first of
its kind in Canada.
This
community-wide initiative aims to create public spaces for survivors, and
invites vital, but often private, conversations to
be more public so that communities can heal from collective trauma, gain
insight, and move towards a world free from sexual violence.
