Panel Discussion: Social Justice and Art

Sunday, November 16 at 2 PM • Free

Join us for a thought-provoking conversation exploring the intersections of art, community, and social justice. This panel brings together two acclaimed Louisiana artists—Ron Bechet and Malaika Favorite—whose work engages deeply with themes of history, identity, and cultural memory. Together, they will reflect on how art can both document and shape lived experiences, spark dialogue, and inspire change. This program will be moderated by Brandon V. Lewis, Executive Director of The Helis Foundation John Scott Center.

The program invites audiences to reflect on the ways artists inspire dialogue, deepen understanding, and build connections across communities. A Q&A will follow the discussion.
