Name of event: Literature & Art as a Tool for Justice
Type of event: Workshop
Brief description of event: ARTiculate; Art as a force for change!
What is the role of creativity in social change movements? How do artists from multiple disciplines use their work to challenge what is, revision what could be, and linger in the emotional and spiritual realms that come up when dealing with injustice and oppression? We will read literature, discuss specific projects from local and national artists, and engage in creative exercises as a group that explore intersections of oppression, identity, and creativity.
