Merola to Lecture at University of Michigan's Institute for the Humanities
February 23rd, 2017
On March 6, Shanna Merola (Photography ’11) will speak at a lecture called, “Off the Record.” She will discuss the various roles that art and activism play in her work with grassroots movements across the country – from the historic fight to reclaim Richmond, Virginia’s African Burial Ground to the deeply embattled struggle over water privatization in Detroit and Flint, Michigan. The lecture is at University of Michigan’s Institute for the Humanities from 3:30-5:30pm. Following the lecture, there will be an opening reception for Merola’s pop-up exhibition, Another Country.
