MURALISM & ACTIVISM
Thursday, April 7 | 12p
CCSRE Conference Room | BLDG 360 | RM 361J
Join us for a lecture by Gina Hernandez-Clarke, Director of Community Engaged Learning, Stanford Arts Institute, and Stanford Alum. Inspired by mural movements in the S.F. Bay Area and elsewhere, Stanford students alongside artists such as Juana Alicia have painted murals at sites on campus. This talk will address how these murals are a unique form of community engagement and sites for creating shared history and student learning across generations. At the heart of this form of public art is the power of muralism in furthering social justice movements.
This event is presented in partnership with the Institute for Diversity in the Arts.
