On Thursday February 8, 2018 from 5:30-8pm, Collect For Change, AKArt, and state will co-present a conversation with artists Angela Hennessy, Michele Pred, and Piyali Banerjie on the role of the arts in activism. In conjunction with our current exhibition, Object Action: The 'F' Word in a Post-Truth Era, the artists will speak about their own work, both in and out of the social practice realm, and their featured pieces in the group show. Concluding the discussion, Angela Hennessy will perform a reading of her The School of the Dead manifesto, after which a reception will follow. More information is available on the Facebook event page.
AKArt and state are pleased to present Object Action: The 'F' Word in a Post-Truth Era to mark the inauguration of Collect For Change-an initiative which collaborates with artists across disciplines, offering artwork with a portion of sales benefiting a charity personally selected by each artist.

Contemporary playwright Phillip Howze uses the age old medium of storytelling to hold a magnifying glass up to our current culture. It's this astute talent that earned the emerging playwright a spot in the prestigious New Writers residency with New York City's Lincoln Center Theatre. It was announced early last week that Howze will be one of only eight in the inaugural group of resident artists for the program. This marks his second fellowship with the famed theatre, as previously he was a 2015-16 Lincoln Center Education Artist Fellow.
