IVLA is proud to announce our support and sponsorship of the Black Line of Humanity photography exhibition at the Oxnard Performing Arts Center in Oxnard, CA. At IVLA, we understand the significant impact that the arts have on mental health and overall wellness, especially for our students.

Black Line of Humanity is an exhibition focused on looking at the most intimate aspects of a person’s worldview regarding body positivity and mental health. The objective is to shine a light on the struggles that we all have regarding self-worth and body positivity.

Photographer and creator, Christian Ramirez, said "I don't only see photography as way to self-express and help move through difficult times. I see it as a tool to spark ideas in others which can potentially lead them to a better way of thinking about life."

IVLA embraces the positive message and impact that this exhibition will have in the community.
