Our gallery conversations offer an inclusive platform for the exchange of ideas around social justice and current global concerns, cultivating dialogue across creative disciplines and cultural communities.
Our community programs unite professional artists with community members in collaborative, participatory art-making processes that foster inclusivity and dialogue, and amplify marginalized voices.

Offsite workshops at schools and community organizations are inspired by our current exhibitions, revolving around themes of identity, memory and place, and promoting ideals of social justice.
