"We Care, We Dare" for a sustainable and peaceful future

We at SUMUS, understand the power of collective action and the impact it can have on our world.
At the heart of our endeavours lies a resolute aspiration: to foster a profound and lasting impact on society, one that embraces sustainability, justice, and inclusivity, with a spotlight on the pivotal role of women.

Today, we invite you to join us in supporting the initiative Mille Donne di Venezia - WOW (Women of the World). This project, emanating from the heart of Venice, is not just an exhibition—it's a global call to action, a celebration of women's potential, and a commitment to a sustainable future for all.

Slated for launch on World Children's Day, November 20, 2023, this initiative is poised to awaken the feminine energies in Venice and across the globe, with the ultimate aim of fostering a brighter and more sustainable future for upcoming generations.

The Mille Donne di Venezia exhibition is a tribute to 1000 Venetian women who embody the motto "We care, We dare". Esteemed artist Pierre Maraval is capturing these women in portraits which will serve as the foundation for the digital art platform, WOW. This platform is designed to spark a global momentum of sisterhood, challenging existing mindsets, promoting harmony between genders, and initiating projects to heal humanity and our planet.

Beyond the exhibition, the WOW initiative will house an infinite gallery of women's portraits on a dynamic web platform, inviting women from all corners of the world to participate and celebrate their role in shaping a sustainable future. With the capacity to gather millions of portraits, this platform will broadcast these images in a continuous loop on the live page and display them on screens in art centres and public spaces globally.

The launch of Mille Donne di Venezia will span over three days, featuring a press conference, inspirational talks, film screenings, and networking events, culminating in the unveiling of Mille Donne di Venezia and WOW with a convivial gathering and an immersive show at the majestic San Lorenzo Church.

Our vision is ambitious, but we firmly believe that, with your help, we can transform it into reality.

By supporting Mille Donne di Venezia - WOW, you are becoming part of a global movement that underscores the critical role of women in creating a sustainable future. Your support signifies a commitment to social responsibility, inclusivity, and ecological sustainability.

Join us in broadcasting a powerful message of hope and unity.

Mille Donne di Venezia - WOW aims to inspire action towards a more sustainable and equitable future by showcasing the strength, resilience, and dedication of women from Venice and across the world.
