Join me in supporting the victims of Domestic Violence as we ask for your help during the month of October. The Fourth Annual Domestic Violence Awareness Project
“Break the Chains”
will open Saturday, Oct.1at bjsartworks Gallery and run through Monday, Oct. 31.
Opening reception is Saturday Oct. 8, 4 – 6 pmMeet the artists and enjoy the acoustic inspirational music of Pam Barker.
bjsartworks hopes to raise $1000.00 to give to our local Catholic Charities to help support the relief they provide to victims of domestic violence.
A raffle of original art will help meet our goal.....along with other opportunities to donate.
Domestic Violence is the silent devastation of families and souls.
This social dysfunction is deep rooted in families and individuals throughout history.
The cycle continues to breed destruction and quite often fatal outcomes in our society,
affecting more people and families than we know.
This project is designed to bring awareness to the public and to paint a picture of the devastation that this violence creates, as well as the survival that embodies hope and faith that rises us above and beyond the chains that bind individuals and families who have been victimized by domestic violence.
This years’ show continues to attract artists from around the region who believe in the cause.
Sculpture by Michelle Vara, Jane Bouchard, Pam Barker and 2D work by Fred Holman,
Connie Dodge, to name a few.
Pam Barker, the inspiration for this project, exhibits new interactive work for this show which urges us to reach beyond ourselves as victims, to look within and find our strength that will carry us above the past and into the future of hope and a life without violence.

I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
