ABOUT

The Antiracist Classroom encourages and facilitates anti-racist art and design practice.


To this end, we curate spaces, ways of working, and relationships through which artists and designers, especially, can practice cultivating anti-racist creative practices — from our actual classrooms to our studios to our neighborhoods.

Call for Entries


We invite you to submit your creative manifesto for the first issue of Alter: A manifesto is anything and everything that defines you, your work, and things you want to tell the world. It is a juxtaposition of things you’ve learned, encountered, and all the elements that define you.

This issue of Alter is a declaration of the amalgamation of identities and beliefs students of color  have at ArtCenter. As we embark on our journey of critique and expression through future issues of Alter, we want to use this first issue to articulate  who we are and what shapes us.

Submissions may respond to the following questions:

How do you express your beliefs through your work?

How does your body of work represent who you are?

What parts of your life inform your perspective and position?

How is your work informed by the current state of socio-political affairs?
