The F Word Exhibition | Hart House
Details: The F Word: Images of Forgiveness is a thought provoking collection of arresting images and personal narratives exploring forgiveness in the face of atrocity. First launched in London in 2004, it has since been displayed in over 300 venues worldwide. Drawing together voices from the international community the exhibition examines forgiveness as a healing process, a journey out of victimhood. The F Word centres on stories of redemption, forgiveness, compassion and social action told by victims of crime. It is unforgettable, transformative and utterly compelling.
