LWVWI Annual Meeting 2025

Where do the arts and civic activism intersect? Through song, dance, paint, theatre, photography, the written word and more, artists have used their voices, bodies and talents to influence and advocate for millenia. Join us to learn how the modern-day arts continue to push society forward toward a more just, equal and democratic world.
