Denise, I think that would be a good idea. Have already been talking to Jan, one of the organisers, about another piece I would like to submit to the exhibition, so I will run it by her and see what she thinks.
If she thinks it would be a good idea, I really feel it would need to go into a room on it's own or an area seperated from the rest of the exhibition as it has the potential of bring up lots of stuff for people. It would also probably be appropriate to have counsellors available or people just there to be able to talk and lend a shoulder to cry on. This happened at the exhibition in Perth. regards Sally ----- Original Message ----- From: "Denise Hynd" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, October 21, 2002 12:23 PM Subject: Re: [ozmidwifery] Rape by stealth (longish) > > I wonder if it could be partnered with the Art exhibition in support of > Maternity coalition? > Denise > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Sally Williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Sunday, October 20, 2002 10:44 PM > Subject: Re: [ozmidwifery] Rape by stealth (longish) > > > > Dear Lynne, > > > > At the moment it is just in Perth, but having spoken to these wonderful > > women would love the opportunity to help it travel but am looking for > > sponsorship.
