Contents and Overview
This course is aimed at teaching artists and activists safe and easy ways to begin their journey as protest artists, civil rights activists, climate change fighters, and becoming a voice for those who cannot fight for themselves using the power of artistic expression.
You’ll start with the basics of the definition of art activism and what it encompasses along with learning about the history of art activism as we examine the artists that came before us.
You’ll learn about the rules and regulations around the world today that prevent the act of creative protesting, and how to stay safe when protesting and creating art for change.
You’ll work through exercises to create different types of art that will develop your style before exploring which angle will best connect your work with the right audience.
You’ll then discover how to find the right audience for your art, how the placement of your art is key, as well as how to find other artists and activists to collaborate with so that you can reach a larger audience and make bigger and even more impactful art.
Who is the Instructor?
Libby Copa is a writer, adventurer, activist, and rebel. Her favorite art activist medium is creative writing, creating stories for how she wishes the world would be. She believes that a person can be changed by reading a book and can then go on to make change in the world.
Libby creates a space in her work for societal taboos with hopes of making them less threatening – a space where flawed characters are not only forgivable but accepted, and where she can show readers what the world could have been and what it can still be. She encourages other artists to create work that clearly represents their own truths, to take risks, and to push against the creative norm in new ways.
I can’t wait to meet you in the course!
