"What is art for? How do our identities influence the art we make? How do we create work that examines systems of power, oppression, and liberation? Art for Social Change students seek answers to these questions in galleries, museums, street corners, and artist studios. They meet artists whose work creates spaces for healing and reconciliation, and join a growing movement of artists pushing the boundaries of what creative expression does, where it unfolds, and whose voices it amplifies. Guided by practicing artists, students create new work informed by the study of systemic oppression in the Twin Cities."
