Freedom to Create Exhibition

Freedom to Create Exhibitions celebrate the transformative power of the arts to heal, inspire and build social capital. It is a physical manifestation of how creativity is being used to drive social change around the world.

Each year, a selection of highly commended entries for the Freedom to Create Prize is chosen for a touring exhibition, which travels across the world. The Exhibition aims to bring messages of courage, creativity, unity, reconciliation, healing and hope from around the world to new audiences. It addresses the importance of empowering dreams to transform lives, and celebrates the power of art to confront barriers to prosperity.

The Exhibition also offers participating artists the opportunity to bring their messages to an international platform. Previous Freedom to Create Exhibitions have toured London, New York, Harare, Kabul, Cairo, Mumbai, Sarajevo and Xiamen, where the exhibition has enjoyed tremendous success and acclaim.

Freedom to Create is incredibly grateful for the support, partnership, guidance and encouragement that we have received from our amazing supporters, artists, participants, judges and other organisations since we began in 2006. We have made the difficult decision to suspend Freedom to Create's Prize and Exhibitions from 31 December 2011 for a period of strategic evaluation. Thank you for your support and wishing you courage and creativity in all that you do.
