In 2005-2006, Alverno Presents, Marquette University’s Department of Performing Arts, and the UWM Peck School of the Arts offer a year-long, citywide arts festival on the theme of Art, Faith and Social Justice.
Art, Faith and Social Justice celebrates engagement. It showcases human activity—art—that reaches simultaneously towards the spiritual and the political. Though it may be argued that all art is a form of prayer, our focus is on artists who explore identity, examine individual and collective responsibility, seek transcendence, and strive to create a legacy that can help us heal the world.
Art, Faith and Social Justice encompasses performances, exhibitions, screenings, lectures, hands-on workshops, debates, panel discussions, talkbacks, forums and a national academic conference; it ranges across disciplines and venues. Art, Faith and Social Justice emerged from a shared interest in social action. With your participation, we can make the case for the arts as an agent of change. Please join us!
