Hiding in Plain Sight: Unmasking the Public Interest in Art
(Special Event)
Art cultivates empathy and imagination, sustaining resilience and strengthening social fabric. But far too often, the conventional view dismisses it as a frill. Arlene Goldbard shines a light on the vast and true public interest in art. Goldbard urges her audience to reject a frame that is too small to hold culture's real power and potential to nurture civil society and a livable future. Goldbard is a writer, speaker, social activist, and consultant who works for justice, compassion and honor in every sphere, from the interpersonal to the transnational. She is known for her provocative, independent voice and her ability to inspire and activate.
