Public art has the power to energize communities. Explore pubic art on the University of Minnesota Twin Cities campus through a virtual tour. The pieces presented on the Weisman's public art website PA25.org have been accomplished within a social process that involved the campus community in the selection of the artists and periodic review of each artist’s work as it unfolded.
Join us on Wednesday, May 19 at 7:00 p.m. (CDT) for a talk, conducted via Zoom, by Dr. Allissa V. Richardson, journalism scholar and author of Bearing Witness While Black: African Americans, Smartphones and the New Protest #Journalism (Oxford University Press, 2020).
