Public Trust Book Launch and Reception

You made a promise, and made it public. Now, see it in print! Public Trust the book is here, and we're celebrating with a launch party, discussion, video screening and exhibit.

On March 6, from 6:30–8:30 p.m., at District Hall, join artist Paul Ramirez Jonas and a panel of Public Trust participants and artist ambassadors to discuss the participatory artwork that took place in three locations in Greater Boston, August 27–September 17. We'll discuss how the act of making a promise changed our perceptions of truth and made us question the promises we keep with ourselves and with each other. We're honored to have Dan Byers (Senior Curator at the ICA) moderating the panel discussion!

Prior to the conversation, we'll screen a stunning, short documentary of Public Trust by RAVA films. We'll close the night with good food and a reception to view a select group of the promise drawings made by participants from Dudley, Kendall, and Copley.

THIS EVENT IS FREE AND OPEN TO ALL
