Socially engaged Art
What is it? Socially Engaged Art is the integration of Art, Advocacy, and Community to create a Transformation. It is a process that allows for communities to communicate and learn about complex social justice themes in civic spaces. Students are challenged to reconsider their personal definitions of each component and then create their own socially engaged art.
