The Art of Democracy

Keystone Progress Education Fund and Casey Droege Cultural Productions are thrilled to present the exhibition series The Art of Democracy.

The project aims to create a dialogue around our democracy as a whole and the current political climate, particularly leading up to the presidential election on November 5. These four exhibitions, located across Western PA, tackle contemporary issues of reproductive freedom, the impact of gun violence, and the growing role of artists in uniting community voices for change. Each features the work of living, regional artists thoughtfully curated into displays and public programs to foster discussion, connection, and contemplation, ultimately demonstrating what a healthy democracy should look like.

The Art of Democracy demonstrates the integral role that artists play in a healthy democracy. The exhibition looks to explore ways that artists and activists are using their voices, working in direct collaboration with communities, and harnessing collective power to move us towards a more just and liberated world.
