Creating Change: Arts and Activism
“The role of the artist is that of the soldier of the revolution.”
-Diego Rivera
Through captivating music and compelling words, Proximity addresses three major issues that affect us all, and every day, artists around the world are using the arts to create change on the ground. Following the matinee performance on Sunday, March 26, audience members are invited to stay for a conversation with those working at the intersection of arts and activism, using different forms of expression to ignite change every day. Chaz Ebert, CEO of The Ebert Company and member of the Lyric Opera of Chicago Board of Directors, will moderate this conversation.
This program is dedicated to the memory of Joseph London Smith, grandson of Chaz Ebert.
