Kranti Revolution @ Gallery Night MKE

Hello WIDMKE Members,

We have an event we have been organizing separately from WID through Taruna's global design based non-profit, Defining Humanity. It has been a quick, exhilarating sprint to bring to life this event that means so much to us. Now, we would like to humbly extend invitations to all of you. Thank you to our Women in Design for their support in sharing this with our extended WID community. This event means a lot to us both - thank you. We hope to see you there. Together we can do great things.

Thank you,

Taruna Gupta + Jadyn Anderson, WIDMKE Board Members

Women in Design is sharing an event you will not want to miss coming up soon on GALLERY NIGHT MKE Friday, October 16th at Mitchell Street Arts from 5:30-8:30pm. Global design based non-profit Defining Humanity is helping KRANTI build a new home in the Himalayas of India, designed for supporting the healing of the abandoned daughters of the red-light districts of India and young women who are rescued from trafficking. Kranti, meaning revolution in Hindi, empowers these girls to become agents of social change. At this event, learn about the relationships, stories, tears, and laughter that informed Defining Humanity's design process with Kranti.

The event launches Spaces that Listen, a supporting publication from the designers that shares the story of Kranti and the design process. This night is also a first look at the upcoming photography exhibition, After Hours, from SPEOS Paris graduate and Kranti daughter, Ashwini Mane, who returns to the brothels she was raised in to share an intimate look at life from within. Engage in dialogue and contemplation about sex-trafficking and unlock within yourself the power to be an agent of social change yourself.

Join us for this free event, participate in Gallery Night MKE, bring a friend, grab a glass of wine, and immerse yourself in this interactive discussion.
