Where do art and social justice intersect? Who works in this realm and how is it done? Join us for a discussion on this topic with Carrie Christensen and Mankwe Ndosi from Minneapolis, Minnesota and local hip-hop artist and activist Marco Pave. Carrie is the Program Manager at Creative CityMaking at Intermedia Arts, and Mankwe is an artist/performer and activist working with Creative CityMaking. We will explore the practical aspects of this type of work including formulating ideas, how to manage projects, and how to get funding.
