Forward LA, Art Spaces in the City, 2017-04-27/2017-04-28

Forward LA: Race, Arts, and Inclusive Placemaking after the 1992 Civil Unrest conference, Art Spaces in the City. This session brings together artists and organizations who have been working to break down LA’s segregated art geography by where they situate themselves in the city, their connections to insider and outsider arts, and practices to engage local communities and the larger public. We will also discuss the challenge of how art can raise a community’s self value without igniting displacement and gentrification, 2017 April 27-28
