Art & Activism: Celebrating the Art and Design of Hip-Hop
Nov 17, 2023; 6:30 - 8:30pm
While the world has celebrated the music and culture of hip-hop during this year's 50th anniversary, the Division of Continuing Education at the School of Visual Arts is particularly interested in highlighting the unique art and design that defines the diverse community. From the early days of graffiti to street art to becoming an integral part of the art scene, hip-hop is embedded in our society.
Enjoy a special evening and meet artist and designer, Eric Haze (BFA 1985 Media Arts); documentary photographer, Janette Beckman; executive director and president of the Keith Haring Foundation, Gil Vazquez; and DJ Tokyo Rose, playing her vast collection of hip-hop music from the 70s to today.
Free and open to the public
