Create art to inspire, to start a conversation, and to make a difference.
Join a group of thinking kid artists this summer and explore some of the challenging issues facing the world today. Use your knowledge and hone your skills to be as effective as you can. We live in a world that needs art to create social and political change.
Art/Activism/Impact is a laboratory for young people hungry to engage the challenging issues of the day. We invite kids who are open to learning from peers as well as current and historical activists. Kids who are ready to work collaboratively on artistic projects that provoke, educate, and force us to act. We will explore art for social change and current activists that might include printmakers, installation artists, puppeteers, theater producers, filmmakers, and poets.
Collaging and exploring the endless possibilities of cut paper, found objects, stamps and paint!
Potential Topics:
animal rights
racial inequality
climate change
rights of indigenous people
