RE:CLAIM Rooted Exhibit: Community // Love // Abundance // Intergenerational // Multiplicity
The RE:CLAIM project is a collective of artists, advocates, and movement builders seeking to honor the complexity and diversity of the community impact of the criminal legal system as it affects youth, adults, and families. The layers of the immersive installation offer audio and visual arts as a catalyst for visioning practices, and resources supporting the wellness and safety of our neighbors.
The exhibition events will take place at the Washtenaw County Court House the evenings of September 15, 22, and 30 from 5:30pm – 8:00pm. The artwork will remain in the courthouse for 8 weeks.
The organizational leadership of RE:CLAIM is: Youth Arts Alliance , Interfaith Council for Pe ace & Justice , Washtenaw My Brother's Keeper , Amplify Project, and Title Track . Working in partnership with the Washtenaw County Trial Court, these organizations will collaborate with many organizational partners, artists, musicians, and culture makers to participate in this exhibition and programming series.
September 15th is OPENING NIGHT and will include spoken word, dance, and a special performance by ‘Formula 734’ as they release their second album. Formula 734 is an intergenerational music collaboration created by Washtenaw My Brother’s Keeper (WMBK). WMBK is a community transformation and youth empowerment collaborative focused on enhancing the lives of young men of color. Their first album and partnering documentary has received critical acclaim from various local and national media sources.
September 22 “What If We Were All Free?” hosted by the Interfaith Council for Peace & Justice as part of ICPJ's Compassionate Community Conversations program to build greater empathy and understanding within our communities, even when we hold different viewpoints.
