The women and men portrayed in this photo essay generously agreed to share their stories to heighten awareness of the disease that touched their lives

Breast cancer survivors now comprise the largest group of cancer survivors in the United States.  The improvement in survival reflects progress in diagnosing breast cancer at an earlier stage and advances in treatments - a living testament to the power of society and science to save lives.

As part of a public awareness campaign, the North Jersey Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure, in partnership with PNC Wealth Management and Roche, proudly presents Journeys of Courage.  We hope that all who views this exhibit will be moved by the strength and courage of our heroes and will be inspired to join us in our promise to end breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality of care for all and energizing science to find the cures.

To coincide with the main stage production of The Miracle Worker, The Renee Foosaner Art Gallery, located on the mezzanine level of the theatre, continues its series of distinguished art displays with The Matheny Medical and Educational Center's Arts Access Program.

An alternative arts program for individuals with disabilities, the Matheny Medical and Educational Center's Arts Access Program offers opportunities for unlimited self-expression in the visual, literary and performing arts. Professional artists are trained as facilitators to assist artists with disabilities in their creative pursuits while remaining neutral in the creative process. The process is entirely directed by the disabled individual - the final creative expression is completely their own. Through this unique methodology, the world of artists with disabilities, like that of all other artists, becomes unlimited and rich with creative and expressive possibilities.
