Our Arts and Democracy programs include unforgettable film screenings, inspiring artist talks and thought-provoking symposia that explore how the arts advance our understanding of places, histories, cultures and contemporary issues. The Center's Arts and Democracy fellows are ASU faculty and community practitioners whose work, research, performance and writing explore democracy in areas such as dance, visual and fiber arts, fashion and film.
