Social justice comics

Seventeen teenagers worked with volunteers and guest artists to create 10 comics. They conducted video interviews with local advocates on their chosen social justice topics: gender equality, arts in schools, bullying, LGBTQ community and suicide prevention.

Thank you, Michigan

This mural was made possible by local residents who wanted to create a place for people to communicate with one another. It’s about making public spaces that help us see we are not alone as we work together to lead Michigan into a brighter future.

 

This wall was inspired by artist Candy Chang. She began a global chalkboard art project, “Before I Die,” that invites people to share their personal aspirations in a public space. 

The workshops were a partnership with Michigan State University Director of Dance Sherrie Barr and undergraduate students to teach at-risk youth about art and movement. Students examined body images, space, shape, and texture from varied points of view.

Art meets movement

Fifteen students partnered with local glass artist Craig Mitchell Smith, Impression 5 Science Center, the Joint Institute for Nuclear Astrophysics, and Delphi Glass to successfully handcraft eight planets and a sun. The artwork has been permanently installed at Impression 5.
