Art with a Message: Take a Stand
On July 24 and 25, the Spencerville Mill will host Take a Stand, a powerful exhibit presented in collaboration with Maison Baldwin House. Spread across the museum floor, hundreds of pairs of white jeans—each painted by local students, artists, survivors, and advocates—tell deeply personal stories of human trafficking and gender-based violence.
More than an art display, Take a Stand invites visitors to reflect, engage in conversation, and listen to the voices of those directly affected. The exhibit highlights an issue often unseen but very present in our communities—especially along the 401 corridor.
The exhibit runs during regular museum hours, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day. Free with museum admission of $2, with free access for youth and children.
