ArtWallah 2.0 Sponsored by SABA-SC
ArtWallah 2.0 - Saturday, May 6
SABA-SC is proud to support this amazing revival on Saturday, May 6. Message from the Artwallah Steering Committee:
"We have an outstanding lineup of artists as well as activists to share their talent and work with us! Tickets can be purchased through www.artwallah.com.
ArtWallah is back! After a ten-year hiatus, ArtWallah: Resistance, Resilience and Resonance will take place in downtown Los Angeles on Saturday, May 6. The original ArtWallah festivals promoted the experience of the South Asian diaspora through art and dialogue.
Fast forward 10 years, and we find the spirit of ArtWallah to still be...
...Resisting
We are resisting the politics that divide us internally and from each other. We speak out against policies that oppress minority groups, combat hate and ignorance toward Muslim, Sikh, Hindu, and other faiths, are on the front lines protecting and advocating for the rights of each other, immigrants, other PoC, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and anyone else who faces marginalization in our current political climate.
...Resilient
There is an inward and outward story of resilience so many of us carry. We fight against internalized patriarchy, classism, and racism, but also find joy and freedom of expression in the culture and traditions of our ancestors and of our past. We are celebrating our resilience as individuals and as a community.
...Finding Resonance
We look for commonalities between and with each other, and we don't find our differences to be a threat. Through our artistic expression and/or professional work, we are building relationships and are uplifting each other. Part of our commitment to each other as part of a larger South Asian community is to validate each others' experiences as legitimate and worthy of sharing, and find ways to help each other succeed in our personal and professional realms.
The South Asian Network is proud to be a fiscal sponsor of this special event!
