The Andrew Freedman Home invites Bronx artists, community leaders, friends and neighbors to join us Sunday April 28th from 2-5pm for a community discussion about the arts, social responsibility and how to build community assets and opportunities for artists of The Bronx. This event will be live-streamed by BronxNet for anyone unable to attend in person.
The discussion will be led by a panel of community organizers, and begin with introductions and an initial discussion amongst the panelists. The discussion will then be opened to attendees to share their thoughts on the issues at hand. It is our hope that this community forum will be the first of many, and an opportunity to come together, share perspectives and create action steps to build a stronger arts community in The Bronx!
Our Panelists:
April De Simone, Co-Founder of DesingingTheWE (Moderator)
Walter Puryear, Executive Director of The Andrew Freedman Home
Elia Alba, Artist and Creator of The Supper Club
Charles Rice-Gonzalez, Author and board member of Bronx Council on the Arts and National Association of Latino Art
