Three days of dialogue, learning, and a curated set of programs featuring keynote speaker Dr. Chanda Prescod-Weinstein and more!
ENGAGE! brings together scholars, artists, performers, curators, and scientists for a dynamic convening over three days of dialogue, learning, and interactive activations. Inspired by the groundbreaking exhibition UNBOUND: Art, Blackness & the Universe curated by Key Jo Lee, the gathering invites our audience to excavate how we can reimagine Blackness not as fixed or earthbound, but as infinite – expansive, unknowable, and cosmically rich. The exhibition asks: What if we approached Blackness with the same wonder we bring to the universe? What if, like a black hole or distant star, Blackness could be a site of mystery, power, and transformation?
