Speaking at the Launch, Avista CEO Lorraine Macken said: “2026 is a special year for Avista (formerly the Daughters of Charity) as we celebrate 100 years of service. Over the last century, Avista have supported thousands of people - each with an individual story. Each portrait in this exhibition goes beyond appearance to capture character, emotion, and identity. The beauty of this exhibition is its humanity. We are invited to hear about people in their own words and through objects and photographs they have chosen to represent themselves.”
