Modeling Community Care

Commissioned by Defund MPD

(Summer 2022)

Artist and Worker-Owner Camila Tapia-Guilliams facilitated an art workshop where participants reflected on questions around community care and a future without the police, made art about their reflections, and shared with one another.
