Imagine... A local corps of creatives—artists, organizers, educators, humans—working to advance equity, empathy, sustainability, and social justice in DC through art and culture. The U.S. Department of Arts and Culture (USDAC) - the nations newest people-powered department sparking grassroots creative change - believes this force is already here! Under the umbrella of the Atlas Performing Arts Centers INTERSECTIONS Festival, “What is a Citizen Artist?” is a city-wide creative convening to explore ways DC Citizen Artists can “perform” and create a city rooted in more empathy, equity, and social imagination. The evening will feature pop-up creative responses by local artists and cultural workers. WHAT WE KNOW: Citizen Artists need not self-define as artists or be U.S. citizens in the legal sense of the word! We welcome anyone who believes that these times call for a deep investment in creativity and imagination and who are eager to apply theirs in the service of a more just and vibrant world. More to unfold, save the date and join us if its your 1st time or 3rd! #ImaginingDC
