This panel presentation is a conversation between an art therapist, museum educators, and research professors who examine black art in the context of the past, present, and future to determine the implications of the concept of afrofuturism in art therapy and art education.

In an attempt to bridge the therapeutic qualities of art with education and community and cultural institutions, this panel will contemplate the question, How can art therapists and art educators use afrofuturism as a lens to contextualize and conceptualize ways of healing and liberation of black people. Through case material, artwork and dialogue this panel will examine the use of afrofuturistic art to offer a framework for use when working to heal and liberate black and brown people in art therapy.

Everyone is welcome! Participants will be able to earn 2 CEU credits. This event costs $50 for members and $80 for non-members.
