Small Talk/s is a speaker series featuring local creatives telling their stories. Through this program CAAC aims to highlight the varied and circuitous paths our local creatives take in their careers.
ONE DROP is a traveling artist collective uplifting artists in every community run by three artists based in Indianapolis, Indiana. Formed amid the global pandemic in 2021, Hannah Paz-Westbrook (Herron School of Art + Design, BFA), Alyse Tucker Bounds (Herron School of Art + Design, BFA), and Caleb Davis-Barney (Pratt Institute, MFA) noticed the lack of representation in the local and international art world and decided to utilize their resources to create a space that allows for artists and the community to come together for one common cause: amplifying the voices of historically marginalized communities through vibrant creativity.Since then, they’ve completed numerous art exhibitions across the United States partnering with city planners, artist-run spaces, galleries, and more. They are in their third year partnering with organizations in Columbus, IN to curate art exhibitions surrounding Juneteenth, have earned an Innovation Award from the city of Bloomington after repurposing a vacant storefront into a public exhibition, worked as stage designers with global force Midwest Fashion Week, and acted as the official install team for GANGGANG to design and execute the exhibition Butter: At Indy’s Home Court during NBA Allstar 2024 in the Indianapolis Arts Garden.
