Learning Circle: We Will Not Forget

July 14, 2018, at 11 a.m.

In conjunction with the “Art and Healing” exhibition, Mia is co-hosting a series of discussions with artists and facilitators to open up opportunities for dialogue and allow visitors to creatively engage around important issues of injustice and healing. Some conversations are intended to offer strategies for self-care and healing; some are geared toward supporting learning, growth, and understanding around racial justice; and some are designed for visitors to come together to explore art as a powerful vehicle for addressing injustice and a tool for community healing.

This circle, “We Will Not Forget,” is led by Leonel Dorvil. Join the circle to learn how we as a community can sustain, push, drive, and continue to mobilize towards greater social and racial justice.

Free; advance rsvp requested to artandhealing@artsmia.org.
