A conversation with Austin-based artist, Dawn Okoro, about her work, process, and ideas. More community roundtable than panel!
CHATROOM
CHATROOM is an art conversation series funded by the City of Austin Community Initiatives Grant and produced in partnership with BossbabesATX.
The goal of CHATROOM is to facilitate warm dialogue between artists and the community with the belief that art communities thrive when there is healthy exchange between artists and audience because 1) artists are supported by engaged audiences/patrons and 2) communities are enriched by artists’ labor.
