SUMMARY:The Convergence of Creativity and Censorship 
DESCRIPTION:February 16\, 2023 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm  \nJoin Regarding the Missing Objects exhibition artists Elana Adler\, Tirtza Even\, Ben Segal\, and Maggie Taft\, as they discuss what it’s like to be an artist making work within a complex political climate which often silences discourse in relation to Palenstine and Israel. The artists will explore the role that censorship plays not only institutionally but through self-censorship and omission. How does the act of resisting silencing impact the creative freedom of expression? The artists will discuss the mental and emotional labor that infuses politically-oriented art and practice.  \nRegister on Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-convergence-of-creativity-and-censorship-tickets-482636788627 \nJoin on Zoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88377733638 \nElana Adler Bio \nElana Adler (she\, her) received her BFA from Rhode Island School of Design in 2008 and her MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2017.
