The MFA Studio Art program at American University is pleased to present

Of the Place, a series of conversations that center the artists, art organizations, art activators, and culture producers who have deep connections to their locale.

The theme reflects the times that we are living in – many of us have had to stay in place over the last year. The global pandemic, politics, and the cultural circumstances of our contemporary world have necessitated a change in our social and work patterns. We are looking within our own communities to share resources and support.
