Private Viewings Available Through December 2026

The Pink Bow Project has returned to Austin for the first time since its debut in 2018.

Composed of more than 50,000 individually tied pink bows, this large-scale installation brings visibility to the often-silenced issue of childhood sexual abuse. Through art and storytelling, the project creates space for reflection, meaningful conversation, and greater awareness.

The installation will remain on view at Karen Hawkins Studio in East Austin through the end of December 2026.

We invite you to experience The Pink Bow Project in person. Private viewings offer visitors the opportunity to explore the installation at their own pace in a quiet, intimate setting.

Private viewings are available by appointment and can be scheduled directly through the booking calendar below.

Emmanuel United Methodist Church

A Pink Bow Project Panel Discussion on Child Safety, Technology, and Prevention

This activation is designed to translate awareness into action by creating an accessible conversation around prevention, online safety, and how adults can better support children in an increasingly connected world. The goal is to move beyond fear-based messaging and instead provide families and community members with knowledge, tools, and resources to engage with children from a place of understanding and confidence.

The conversation will feature a moderated panel of experts representing child safety, law enforcement, technology, and national advocacy perspectives. Together, panelists will explore the realities of online risk, how digital platforms function, what parents and caregivers need to know, and how communities can work together to create safer environments for children.

Raising Safe, Connected Kids will take place as a free community activation during the 2026 Austin Studio Tour and will serve as an extension of the Pink Bow Project exhibit experience. Registration will be required, with encouraged donations benefiting The Pink Bow Project and supporting continued community education and prevention efforts.
