Art is activism and portraiture is powerful! On January 28, from 1 p.m. – 4 p.m., join us at the National Portrait Gallery for A Day of Action.

Geared toward mobilizing teens and young adults but open to all, this event featuring local social justice partner organizations and community groups will empower visitors to become engaged citizens. Visitors will learn from change-makers and be inspired by the activists highlighted in the Portrait Gallery’s exhibitions “The Struggle for Justice” and “Forces of Nature: Voices that Shaped Environmentalism.”

Visit our table (and many others) and participate in a Zine-Making Workshop led by Jen White-Johnson, one of the artists in Disrupt and Resist in Gillespie Gallery.

Bring your friends as we honor Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. by participating in community!
