Centre for Artistic Activism
The Center for Artistic Activism is a place to explore, analyze, and strengthen connections between social activism and artistic practice. Our goal is to make more creative activists and more effective artists. We aim to win.
We believe there is an art to activism.
We believe that activism is too often flat and colorless…and it doesn’t need to be.
We believe an aesthetic eye and a creative hand are essential for building a better world.
We believe that everyone has an artistic life they can bring to their activism.
We believe that cultural transformation is necessary for lasting change.
We believe in Utopia, not as a destination but as a direction.
Projects run by the CAA include the College of Tactical Culture, a think-tank of artists, activists, designers and attorneys funded by and held at the Eyebeam Center for Art and Technology in the Summer of 2009, the School for Creative Activism, a training program for grassroots activists, funded by the Open Society Foundations, and the Art Action Academy, a workshop to help socially engaged artists become more politically efficacious.
