"The Art of Community Care"

Collaging Collective Action

(Spring 2022)

This hybrid event was part of Artist-Owner Camila Tapia-Guilliams’ art exhibition at the Stamp Gallery at the University of Maryland. Over livestream with an in-person audience, a panel of our founders discussed our growing worker-owned arts collective, our other projects of creative action, and the role of the Maryland Food Collective in the arts and the activist community at the University of Maryland. We then moved to Studio A for a participatory art-making activity and conversation about how art can be used as a tool of mutual aid, education, and community-building.
