Emory Arts & Social Justice Program

Inspired by faith in the power of art to open spaces for conversation, community-making, and collective action, the Arts and Social Justice Program brings Atlanta artists into Emory classrooms to help students translate their learning into creative activism in the name of justice. Each artist is paired with an Emory faculty member to co-teach an existing course and design a relevant creative project for their students to produce throughout the semester. Additionally, through community events hosted throughout Atlanta, the program has partnered with various organizations seeking to empower art and justice within Atlanta – as well as connecting Emory students to these opportunities.
