The Underground Gallery at The Sanctuary for Independent Media features an exhibition organized by the Iraqi Children's Art Exchange called, "Don’t Forget Us: Iraqi Children 2001 – 2008 (Sanctions, War, Occupation and Exile)” from September 12 through December 14, 2008. The show is open to the public free of charge an hour before, during, and an hour after events and workshops at The Sanctuary for Independent Media.
The Iraqi Children's Art Exchange invites Iraqi and American children and youth to participate in art-inspired projects. Transcending the barriers of language, culture and politics, these projects create important learning opportunities, foster communication, and promote peace and nonviolence.
