Community Engagement

A core element of our partnership with the In Plain Sight coalition is to consider how artists and art spaces can be advocates for social change, on a local and global level. As part of our fall programming, we are offering a series of workshops led by community organizers on topics related to our exhibition and critical to supporting the well-being of our communities—abolishing prisons, ICE and police, and creating community care through mutual aid networks.

All workshops meet on Tuesdays, at 5pm PST. 

Stressed about finals? Take advantage of our SLICE Rejuvenation Sessions! We’ll be providing information about student support services and everyday ways to relieve stress and anxiety. oxy.edu/student-life/virtually-oxy/virtual-activities/tips-studying-remotely

Celebrate yourself and each other by publicly acknowledging the people who support and contribute to your success at Oxy.

Leadership roles can be both rewarding and burdensome at the same time. In this session, we discuss ways to reinvigorate yourself by prioritizing downtime, relaxation and self-care. Learn more about how your well-being is connected to multiple dimensions of high performance.

National Coming Out Day was first observed on the anniversary of the National March on Washington for Lesbian and Gay Rights. Since then, it has stood as a reminder of the power of coming out. Join us in a celebration of our community and to promote a safe world for LGBTQ individuals to live truthfully and openly.

Come to this scheduled performance and open-mic night every month where Black students can enjoy collective expression, release, and healing in a creative and consistent space.
