Art & Activism

The panel  Art & Activism examines how, in times of social and political divisiveness, artists can and are using their art practice as a form of political practice, resistance and protest.

This talk considers how art can be a viable tool for advocacy and agency through the work of a panel of artists across disciplines: theater, dance, music, and visual art.
