Moving The Needle: The Real Impact of Art on the Street
Wednesday, May 17, 2023 • 6:00 – 8:00pm (Performance and panel begin at 6:30pm)
Host & Location: Senior Fellow Nicole Longnecker, Longnecker Gallery 1440 Greengrass Drive

Topic: Our open dialogue will focus on art’s impact on the real world that exists on our city streets. Art has many superpowers: to convey stories, to build connections, to create understanding, to encourage discernment and critical thinking, and to address difficult topics in a non-threatening way. We will explore the topic of art as a means to address prejudice, social injustice, and the flaws in our judicial system.
