"Free the Land! Free The People!" Closing Celebration

Crenshaw Dairy Mart (CDM) is closing out our exhibition, "Free the Land! Free the People! a study of the abolitionist pod," as part of PST ART: Art and Science Collide , with a celebration! This groundbreaking exhibition showcases CDM's innovative approach to addressing systemic issues through art, architecture, and science via a project called abolitionist pods.

About our abolitionist pods

Since its inception in 2021, Crenshaw Dairy Mart has been at the forefront of community empowerment through the creation of abolitionist pods: autonomously irrigated, solar-powered gardens housed within modular geodesic domes. These pods serves as symbols of resilience and self-sufficiency for communities impacted by food insecurity, housing instability, and the Pr*son industrial complex.

Alongside workshops on food justice, art, and healing justice, CDM's abolitionist pod project reimagines community care and demonstrates how art, architecture, and science can collectively tackle systemic challenges.
