Filling the Gaps: How Can We Leverage Artists to Build a Stronger Civic Infrastructure?
This event is part of Arts and Culture Commons, a series of workshops, conversations, and collaborative experiences exploring how artists and government can work together to shape a more creative, connected, and community-centered Boston.
We will talk with Allston-Brighton artists and former Boston Artists-in-Residence to understand how artists contribute to civic problem-solving. Following the panel, breakout room activities will re-imagine an artist-made City Hall where creative practitioners are embedded across departments.
Panelists:
• “Prophet PM” Prophet Paker-McWhorter
• Golden
• Wayne Strattman
