About The Hidden Truths Project
Engaging and Empowering Through Art
Hidden Truths Project (HTP) believes that the arts can become the narrative to engage and empower marginalized members of our society to promote dialogue and foster understanding and acceptance.
Our 1:26 The Art of Epilepsy exhibits, Mindful-based Art Workshops, and If Not Us, Then Who? film series provides the catalyst to facilitate a dialogue based on lived experiences and to dismantle the stigmatization directed against these individuals.
“The artivist (artist +activist) uses her artistic talents to fight and struggle against injustice and oppression – by any medium necessary. The artivist merges commitment to freedom and justice with the pen, the lens, the brush, the voice, the body, and the imagination. The artivist knows that to make an observation is to have an obligation.” – M.K. Asanti

We hold these Core Values as indispensable in order to be true advocates for the diverse communities that we serve.
Cultivating an environment of inclusivity for all members of society, regardless of race, ethnicity, age, ability, health condition, gender identity, socio-economic status, citizenship, or religion.
Collaborate with individuals across a diverse population to understand each other’s views, thereby paving the way for constructive transformation and an environment based on equity.
Promote creative expression as an opportunity for disenfranchised members of society to candidly and without censorship “speak up” to help raise awareness about the pervasiveness and impact of epilepsy on well-being.
Inspire others to think, join in the conversation, and become engaged partners of change.
Through collective engagement, we foster community building with peers and the public driven by an art-inspired narrative.
