Unheard Stories: The Exhibition 🗓 Friday 3rd July: 10am - 5pm 🗓 Saturday 4th July: 11am - 4pm 📍Stalybridge Civic Hall, Trinity Street, Stalybridge, SK15 2BN 🎟 Free entry ___ Through body art portraits, textiles, sculpture, photography, audio stories, poetry, and film, this large-scale exhibition shares lived experiences of endometriosis, pregnancy, and access to reproductive healthcare. Over the past six years, Cabasa has worked with hundreds of women and people across Greater Manchester. Now, we invite you to hear their stories and celebrate the people who have shaped this work. The exhibition will include images from both our Endomorphosis groups, pregnancy and postnatal body painting, audio stories, written experiences, textile work, and a large batik dress created for our Living Dress sculpture, carrying women’s stories of accessing reproductive healthcare.
