Exhibition Audio Tour

Listen to our mother artists, children and curator speak about their exhibition You are more than Enough, in their podcast produced by Chrystal Genesis, award-winning producer of Stance arts and culture podcast. 

About the Exhibition 

You are more than enough follows the journeys of the women’s transition from Concourse House shelter and shifts the narrative from individuals trying to get out to making a life of their own, helping each other emotionally, physically, and creatively. 

 

Using public sculpture, crochet, weaving, beading, writing and songwriting, the exhibition explores themes of peace, recovery, belonging and friendship. 

 

The exhibition takes shape as a neighborhood art walk. Art installations are located at Concourse House, Home for Women and Their Children, Refuge House and Serviam Campus (map below). On route you will find crochet murals and texts, paintings and sneaker art located on the exterior of our buildings, local bodegas, subway stations, sidewalks and more.

 

The exhibition is curated by Concourse House arts curator Jess Rolls in affiliation with Concourse House and Fordham Bedford Community Services.
