We're very grateful to have Ewa Grochowska participating in our October breakfast! Ewa will be featured on our panel and her pottery will also be on display.

A potter, sculptor, and domestic violence awareness activist, Ewa is committed to helping others achieve a life free from abuse. Her organization, Freedom4Ewa, donates time and supplies to children living in domestic violence shelters. Proceeds from her pottery support these endeavors.

Ewa says,

"Creating art allows children to express their emotions in a positive way. It gives them control of something in their life, and it gives them something to be proud of."
