About this event

In December 2021 we gathered together leading visual and performing artists, social justice movement leaders, and innovative organizers at a two-day summit dedicated to dreaming up our new home and reimagining the work of art and justice. We were honored to be joined by Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Aloe Blacc, Guggenheim winner Dred Scott, MacArthur “Genius” award winner and film-maker Alex Rivera, and nationally-recognized organizing and movement leaders such as Ana Maria Archila, Jose Lopez, Linda Sarsour, among many, many others.
