Resisting Erasure: Women Making Art Plática @ Esperanza
Thursday, April 21, 2022 @ 6:30 pm
| FreeEvent Navigation
For women in the arts, access to resources, including exhibition and performance opportunities and funding, too often come with strings attached intended to restrict and silence their voices.
Join us for a wide-ranging discussion on Thursday, April 21, 2022, at 6:30 PM at the Esperanza Peace and Justice Center.
In Resisting Erasure, six women – artists, curators and cultural leaders – will come together to share their experiences of the overt and subtle ways that individuals, institutions and institutional racism, sexism and homo/transphobia repress their work — and how they continue to struggle against oppressive tactics and efforts to silence and censor women’s voices. The discussion will be followed by an audience Q&A.
The panel is moderated by Kathy Armstrong, independent arts leader, and includes Graciela Sánchez, Executive Director of the Esperanza Peace and Justice Center, artist and curator Suzy Gonzalez, and San Antonio-based visual artists Jennifer Ling Datchuk and Sarah Fox, and Norma Cantu, professor at Trinity University.
This event is free and open to the public, presented through the support of Sarah E. Harte in partnership with the Esperanza Peace and Justice Center. Parking for this event will be available at San Antonio College parking lots 27 & 28 and at the Planned Parenthood parking lot at 920 San Pedro.
