Art and Social Impact

(Tuesday 26 January 2021)

A conversation with artists whose work has a social impact dimension in order to explore the question of art and social change.

Includes discussion of personal journeys in addressing issues of social concern, approaches used, and expectations in terms of impact. The session also explored ways in which churches can engage with such art and use it for exploring issues with congregations and beyond.
