NEXT: Art Literature and Culture Festival聽
Next: (of a time or season) coming immediately after the time of writing or speaking; coming immediately after the present one in order, rank, or space. As students graduate, the word seems charged with positive energy. It becomes a statement about moving forward and defining the moment.

Lab 3B.6 Thursday May 11, 3pm-6pm.
You are invited to participate, witness and be moved by the innovative and important work that has been made by this year鈥檚 Resist Violence class. Whether making a political statement with hostile architecture, spreading awareness through paintings, or inspiring us to look at things from a new angle, student artists are working with testimonials, storytelling and performance art. Addressing what it means to be human today, pieces will surely provoke you to reckon with the world the way it is and find a new way to get 鈥淗ome Safe鈥�.
