Our organization works to educate, empower, and mobilize. Our vision is to serve as a platform for critical debate, resource sharing, and capacity building in arts advocacy.

This semester we wanted to highlight and bring student voices to the conversation by exploring all the means in which we as a community can advocate for the arts. This included exploring artwork that serves as a form of activism or which reflects on the impact of art in society.

We partnered and received incredible support from the Chinese Calligraphy Club, the Gottesman Libraries, the Office of the Vice President for Diversity and Community Affairs, the Office of Student Affairs, and the Arts Administration Program to bring this exhibition to our TC and CU community.

Learn more about Tia Dorsey's artistic vision and trajectory here!

Visit the exhibition in the Offit Gallery on the third floor of the Gottesman Libraries at Teachers College, Columbia University.
Open until February 16, 2019.
