Women in the Funeral Industry in the Spotlight!

19 December 2025
NECROEXPO has joined an inspiring global initiative by FIAT-IFTA – the “Manifesto of Visibility and Voice”. We warmly invite all women working in the funeral sector to take part and share their stories through the universal language of art.

The project aims to highlight women’s daily experiences, achievements, and reflections in a profession still often seen as male-dominated. Participants are encouraged to submit photographs, paintings, collages, or short videos—no artistic background is required. What matters most is authenticity, emotion, and the courage to show your perspective.

Submitted works will become part of an international creative archive and will be featured on www.thanos.org and FIAT-IFTA’s social media channels, with further plans for exhibitions and publications.

Submission deadline: 31 March 2026

- Up to 3 works per participant

Works should be submitted to Alison Crake – Project Coordinator alison.heritage@thanos.org)

More information about the project, including detailed submission guidelines, is available here:
