Activate, Reimagine, Transform

June 2-5, 2022

This gathering provides opportunities for artists of all disciplines, educators, members and community organizations to come together to create, to share work and ideas, to present research, to propose collaborations. Through the sharing of work, participatory workshops, panel discussions, research presentations, curriculum design, guided discussions and more, participants will come together to listen, to consider, to share and to act.

  • How are artists of all disciplines creating an impact on diversity, inclusion and accessibility?
  • How are artists reimagining the world we occupy?
  • How does equity, justice and performance intersect?
  • How does creative placemaking impact our communities?
  • How are you crafting open, welcoming and diverse curriculums?
  • How are you engaging in art, action and/or changemaking?
  • How are you challenging systems of oppression through your work, your teaching, your practices?
  • What other questions have come up for you?
