WCAPS Art And Policy Forum
The WCAPS Art Forum seeks to create a safe space to encourage new ways of understanding how issues of peace, security, and conflict affect women of color globally and bring more people into the discussion of these important issues.
ART AND SOCIAL MOVEMENTS
Art & Social Movements will explore how art shapes and moves policy, starting with Black Lives Matter. Black Lives Matter started in the United States, but since anti-blackness and police brutality are a global phenomenon, it has resonated with people around the globe. We want to engage with the activists and artists who are breaking barriers and inspiring millions to join global movements.
