On April 17, 2020, we welcomed artist and curator Rachel Allen, social change designer and founder of DS4SI, Kenny Bailey, and over 80 of you into conversation, exploring how creative expression and cultural programming can help us cope with, process, and respond to the current pandemic while also addressing existing systemic inequities. We’re grateful for everyone who tuned-in to participate and to those who asked questions and added their voices.
