The Leonardo Announces The Opening Of No Fixed Address

SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 6, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Leonardo announced today the opening of its latest original exhibition, No Fixed Address.

Developed in collaboration with Utah's leading community service organizations, this photography and multi-media exhibition was created to inspire understanding, compassion and dialogue, supply information on a complex issue and catalyze action.

Alexandra Hesse, Executive Director of The Leonardo, said:  "No Fixed Address sheds light on the myths and realities of homelessness and invite the public to appreciate the individual humanity of the individuals and families who live on the streets or in shelters. It asks us to take a fresh look at one another and to help build a more compassionate community."

She continued, "Homelessness is an issue that affects nearly every city, but the fact that we live in a place where our community non-profits collaborate so successfully to achieve the highest outcomes, at a lower cost, and with more citizens receiving the intended benefits is a story that can best be shared here."

In addition to the exhibition, The Leonardo will host a thematic series of live public programs and movie screenings throughout the exhibit's 6-month run.
