For many years, Cathy ten Broeke has used her skills as a documentary photographer to educate people about homelessness and inspire social change. Her most recent exhibit, "Picture Ending Homelessness," breaks away from the stereotypical image of the homeless, and focuses on presenting a true depiction of who the homeless are. Through this, she hopes viewers "will recognize themselves and their loved ones in these faces and stories" and no longer be able to ignore the problem.

As part of the Minnesota Center for Photography's Second Tuesday Lecture series, Cathy will give a presentation about her work and the issues surrounding it, and be joined by Spoken Word University and zAmya Theater Project. The exhibit opening is set for Tuesday April 10th at 7:00pm. Hope to see you there!

Look for Cathy to share more of her photography when she talks about her work as Coordinator on Homelessness for Minneapolis and Hennepin County at Solutions Volume 1.
