Directions and Tips:
Make sure to click “Start with audio” when you begin so that you can hear the different soundscapes as you move through the installations.
You can control the volume of the soundscapes using your device’s volume control. To mute a soundscape, click the megaphone icon in the lower-right corner. Make sure to un-mute when you enter a new room.
There are videos that you can watch in their full sequence by clicking on the tags. These include five interviews with the people portrayed in the drawings by Jan Arabas in the center room. You may want to mute the room’s soundscape while watching an interview so you can hear it more clearly.
In the final room, the audio plays automatically when you enter, allowing you to look around as you listen. You can also click one of the two spots at the table to open the audio separately and mute the room audio if you prefer.
All videos run approximately 5–7 minutes.
Look up, down, and all around so that you encounter all the components of the experience.

Our goal is to cultivate a spirit of shared possibility and fuller participation in the ongoing life of our community.
Through our emotions, we rediscover trust. This requires revealing what may feel overlooked or unspoken before it hardens or is turned toward harm under the pressures of authority and survival.
It means moving with both attention and care as we search for stability, love, and freedom.
