Our Future
“Our world is still a ways away from coming back to gather together physically. But we are capable, if not responsible for collectively imagining a future for ourselves. With equal voices and respect and tolerance for all perspectives, we can alleviate some of the fear we’re feeling at the mercy of. After all, if we don’t creatively imagine together, our future will be imagined for us, not by or with us. We owe it to ourselves and to each other to imagine the future together.”-Sally Taylor (Well-Schooled blog May 19th 2020). Below, add your art representing the essence of the future you want to see.
