The joy of light… in the face of darkness!
Children and teenagers in the flower of youth have been forced to leave their homes, under showers of relentless bombardment. The smell of death and destruction has filled their country. Raging infernos are destroying their schools and playgrounds.
Violence, fear and murder have drawn these innocent souls in to darkness, the terrifying things they have seen, perhaps involving relatives or friends, causing deep psychological wounds. “Tomorrow is Ours” aims to extend a loving hand to these children and plant the seeds of hope. Perhaps the psychological support programs provided by the center can help bring these children out of the darkness and in to the light; put smiles back to their sad faces, and wipe away the tears from their troubled eyes.
This exhibition comprises 166 paintings and drawings created by Syrian refugee children duringa three month psychological support project at the Shatila refugee camp in Lebanon.
