From the SEIU convention!
We are at the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) convention in Denver and are thrilled to see the results of the artists residencies that we cosponsored with the union since the beginning of the year. Members from locals in Florida, California, Minnesota, Ontario, Canada; and Puerto Rico working with the artists in residence have created incredibly moving work. Here's a preview of the artwork and performances from rehearsals! More to come - in the meantime check out our Facebook page.
