MANNY CANTOR CENTER

Join the thinkers and doers of the Jewish social justice and environmental movement coming together with artists, writers, musicians, and curators to explore a new angle on socially engaged art, activism and our changing climate.
 

Join Heshvan, the Jewish Social Action Month & the Month of Art and Humanities of the Americans for the Arts through Art Kibbutz’s Conference! Get inspired with new friends: artists, musicians, writers, actors, curators, community leaders, activists, scholars, students, rabbis, visionaries.
 
Our event connects passionate people who share similar values in their work on advancing social justice issues and making ‘tzedek’ a core expression of Jewish life through their art or community work.
 
Artists and creatives are at the forefront of communicating change, using artistic reflection, dialogue and idea generation. Learn from the experts, gather insights from Jewish texts, and delve into real-world scenarios that will elicit new ideas and instigate collaborations… and we’ll have a great time!

The symposium will kick off its 2016 international, inter-disciplinary arts residency on Governor's Island focusing on socially engaged art May through September. The event is dedicated to the memory of Art Kibbutz resident, Jackie Brookner.
