About This Show

After the first semester of the Institute of Prophetic Activist Art at Dixon Place, selected participants will introduce the prophetic activist art projects they have been developing.  Building from the model outlined in founder Tom Block’s manifesto/handbook, Prophetic Activist Art: Handbook for a Spiritual Revolution, participants developed their own activist art projects in a variety of media & fields.  They are now ready to take the next step by presenting them to the public & then implementing them.
