Art at a Time Like This (ATLT) and Artists at Risk Connection (ARC) are joining forces to host “Dangerous Art/Endangered Artists,” a summit bringing together socially-engaged artists and cultural workers to discuss the rising and unprecedented threats to free expression globally. Taking place on June 7th and 8th, 2024, the summit will feature a stellar lineup of today’s leading artists, musicians, authors, thought leaders and performers. “Our goal is dialogue, not divisiveness,” says ATLT co-founders Anne Verhallen and Barbara Pollack.
