Webinar: Art to Bridge Divides
Location: Online
Curious how to address our growing divisions? Tune into a hopeful conversation about how the arts can be a tool for connection.
Arts Midwest, Welcoming America, A Peace of My Mind & other partners convene a discussion about arts’ role in bridging our cultural divisions as part of America Talks & The National Week of Conversation. Hear from a panel of arts leaders about how they’ve been able to deploy creativity as a healing tool and learn tangible ways that you can connect across the divisions present in your own families and communities.
The first folks to sign-up will receive a code for a free screening of the film, The Reunited States. After the webinar, we’ll also send all attendees a toolkit of resources to dig in deeper.
Panelists:
Rachel Perić (Moderator), Executive Director of Welcoming America
Annabel Soutar, Playwright & Theatre Producer
Ben Rekhi, Narrative & Documentary Filmmaker
Donna Neuwirth, Executive Director of Wormfarm Institute
Joe Davis, Multidisciplinary Artist & Founder of The New Renaissance
John Noltner, Photographer & Founder of A Peace of My Mind
