Domestic Violence Awareness Month: Support OMA Art Exhibition

Oceanside Museum of Art (OMA) is seeking underwriting support for the exhibition My Intimate Partner, on view October 5, 2024–March, 2025. This multidisciplinary art exhibition curated and designed by Smadar Samson will feature work by 11 artists examining the intersection between intimacy, power, and control that leads to intimate partner violence. The goal of the exhibition is to broaden the understanding and perception of intimate partner violence in our culture through an artistic transformative prism. Funds will specifically support stipends for the artists and curator.

If you would like to learn more about how you can support this exhibition, please contact Rick Baker, OMA’s Director of Development, at rick@oma-online.org. The museum requests inquiries by April 1 to ensure timely information for interested supporters.
