No Enemies: Call and Response Workshop
What does the present moment call for? What is your response? What is our response, collectively?
How can our creative spirits teach us to transform shared outrage into effective resistance? How can advocacy through music bring our community together?
Jonny 5 invites you to explore these questions by raising your voice and experiencing the power of song as a tool for protest, mobilization, and community defense. Set within the exhibition Gary Simmons: Rush, this gathering continues conversations sparked by the installation — both of attempted erasure, and the resilience of collective memory.
On the eve of MLK Day, join us for an immersive demonstration designed to spark your own form of creative resistance.
