"77 Minutes in Their Shoes" Exhibit
“77 Minutes in Their Shoes” is a collaborative exhibit conceptualized and hosted by Lives Robbed, with photographs by Sarah Sudhoff. It honors the Robb Elementary School shooting victims and their families. The goal of the exhibit is to continue the necessary conversations around gun violence and put a face to the number one killer of children in America - guns.
The exhibit features photographs of the shoes worn by twelve of the student victims when they were killed during the mass shooting at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, TX. The exhibit also features the weighted vest hero teacher Eva Mireles wore during her workouts - a fitting symbol of her strength. Accompanying the shoes/vest, are photographs of the victims’ families with their loved ones items.
We would like to thank the famillies who participated in the exhibit. We will never stop sharing our loved ones with the world and fighting to remember the twenty-one.

Opening Show
Austin, Texas January 10-19, 2025
The exhibit was held at Canopy Projects Gallery in Austin, Texas; intentionally timed with the start of the 89th Texas Legislative Session. The debut featured color photographs of the shoes and Eva’s vest. The main gallery space was adorned with four floor to ceiling triptychs, featuring black and white photographs of the families with their loved ones’ items. In addition to the photographs, there were two school desks, flanking Eva’s vest, covered in pictures of the twenty-one, created by Javier Cazares (Jackie Cazares’ dad).
