Art is a way to express feelings. Art can change people’s hearts. Art can motivate passionate activism within a community. Join us at the Art & Equality panel for a much-needed discussion about how art can overcome racial inequality. Panelists include Jeff Foster and Stacey Robinson.
Local business owner Jeff Foster feels motivated to provide studio space for young artists of color at his local coffee shop. His daughter, Aria, began painting when George Floyd was killed, and expresses her feelings in her beautiful, mosaic portraits which Jeff proudly hangs in his shop.
Artist and Educator Stacey Robinson is the co-founder of Black Kirby, creators of Afrofuturist, Hip Hop-inspired critique of the depictions of black people and their history in comics.
Hear more from Stacey and Jeff and be involved in this art movement in DeKalb by registering to tune into the Art & Equality panel discussion on October 6.
