Hosted by Billy Dee
November 9th, 5 - 6:30pm

On Zoom

The School of Art at UNC Greensboro and Greensboro Project Space are pleased to present the Fall 2020 MFA Colloquium Series. Beginning in mid-October through November, first and second year MFA students will host an event to engage a broader public in an exchange of ideas and questions surrounding important themes related to their creative practice.

This will be an interactive workshop which will include small group discussion, creative writing and drawing exercises, and group dialogue.

* We will be in dialogue about contemporary movements toward the abolition of the Prison Industrial Complex. Please note that the content of this interactive workshop will include some discussion of systemic harm and violence.

Recommended Listening before the colloquium:
