LOS ANGELES—Centering the Masses: Reawakening Capacity in Community Development
May 11, 2019 @ 7:00 am – 5:00 pm
Presented by Visual Communications, CENTERING THE MASSES is a series of free pop-up events and programs at 341 FSN, in the heart of Los Angeles Little Tokyo’s historic district. This nine-week series running from April 5th to May 30, 2019 will bring together artists, cultural workers, entertainment professionals, and civic personalities to celebrate and explore all the ways that motion pictures and media artworks impact our lives. Through intimate conversation, screenings, and visual art presentations, this project will be a space to address the current realities of a community that sits at the crossroads of shifting racial, generational, and economic conditions. Click here for a downloadable calendar of all the events. This project is supported by a Humanities for All Quick Grant. LOS ANGELES—When we mention “capacity,” lots of things come to mind. One way to think about capacity is how individual assets such as time, skills, and health are leveraged towards public organizations, actions, and needs. Broadening capacity and reconnecting our assets is not always an easy conversation to have. Who gets the say on what to do and how? Who has the power to act? What has been done and does it work now? What do we do and who do we work with if it doesn’t? Come join Visual Communications and WAPOW for an intimate seminar about stakeholdership, community change and regenerational action.
