Creativity in the Time of COVID-19: Art for Equity and Social Justice
A month-long art exhibit featuring the works of artists from around the globe. The collection represents a variety of voices, perspectives, and experiences during the pandemic.

Creativity in the Time of COVID-19
Why?
As the COVID-19 made its way across the globe, disparities in access to resources grew. Geography, identity, and histories of inequity and injustice made more visible the ways in which some people are disproportionately affected by devastating global events.
Who?
Many people who were disproportionately affected by the pandemic and others that serve those populations responded with creativity. Their creative spirits tell stories of loss, of anger, of sorrow, of generosity, of resilience, and of personal and social journeys that open paths for equity and social justice. Their work illustrates where the fault lines lie as they express themselves as acts of agency.
