Pass Us the Mic Opening Event: Conversation with Student Artists

Saturday, June 22, 2024, 2 p.m., Dryden Theatre

Join us for a discussion with student artists as they explain their photographs and declarative statements in the exhibition Pass Us the Mic: We’ve Got Something to Say in the Gallery Obscura. 

The works by the fifteen student artists in Flower City Arts Center Expanding the Field after-school program are complex, layered statements about the artists and their views of the world. Their statements span social justice topics like gender discrimination, police brutality, and trans rights, among many others.

Panel moderators

- Jeffrey Q. McCune Jr., PhD. Frederick Douglass professor and chair of Faculty Programs and Departmental Initiatives at the Frederick Douglass Institute and Department of Black Studies. 

- Rashaad Parker, program director and conceptual designer for this project. 

Pass Us the Mic: We’ve Got Something to Say opens in Gallery Obscura on Saturday, June 22. This event is free to all.
