Information

What is the relationship between public health and collective memory? How can the critical and creative practices of craft and public art be imagined to better serve and support the wellbeing of BIPOC communities? Artists engaged in craft and public art both probe these connections and questions, exploring models for how to collectively shape and confront legacies of racist, sexist, homophobic, and colonial systems of knowledge and the implications of these systems on public health and wellbeing.
