                Calling all Artists, Cultural Workers and 

Social Justice Advocates!
 
The Public Exposures Symposium is running this weekend! 
May 27, 28, 29, 2016
 

This weekend event, in conjunction with Public Exposures: the art-activism of condé + beveridge (1976-2016), is bringing together participants from diverse communities and working sectors—practicing artists, community activists, union members, educators, students, and more.

Drawing on Carole Condé and Karl Beveridge’s innovative art and strategic activism, participants will discuss issues and strategies that they and many others are engaging around needs for social, economic, and environmental justice. 

Over the weekend, there will be workshop talks, film screenings, panel discussions, a keynote address and plenty of opportunity for networking, alliance building and a renewal in grassroots collaborations, seeding new possibilities for artists and activists working in the public sphere.

Please join us for all or some of these events!
