ARTIVISM SINGS
Photos on exhibit wall by Nico Tolza. Photo by Ben Camacho.
In 2016-2017, many of us were working with Amnesty International. While fundraising, we remembered the importance of hosting art and music shows to keep the community involved and connected in addition to fundraising. Here, we focused on the local issue of homelessness. "Artivism Sings" is what came out as an example of what we could do more often to keep members engaged.
Thank you so much!
