Collage of art of Lt. Collins with repeated details about the Hope, Healing and Mobilizing against Hate event

It’s time for another Hope, Healing & Mobilizing Against Hate event! This session will focus on making collective art in honor of the tenth anniversary of Lt. Richard Collins III’s murder on our campus in 2017 and in response to the Social Justice Alliance’s call for art for “Rich with Love: A Decade of Remembrance.”

This event seeks to honor Lt. Collins’ life, legacy, and humanity while creating space for collective reflection on love, loss, justice, belonging, and remembrance. Too often, acts of racial violence reduce individuals to headlines, statistics, or symbols. This collective art making space asks us to resist that erasure by centering the fullness of life, memory, and connection through creativity. No art knowledge, skill, or experience required.

Attendees are welcome to join for one or both sessions (from 2 PM to 3PM, and/or from 3 PM to 4 PM). Everyone is welcome! Space is limited, so please RSVP. Snacks will be provided.
