We are calling on artists to explore the theme of generational poverty and the development of support networks to break the generational poverty cycle. How does poverty affect human beings and the societies we live in? How do communities adapt, resist, suffer, and sometimes flourish even within systems of injustice? How does generational poverty change the work of healthcare? What does “ending injustice” look like?

We invite you to submit visual work (paintings, prints, sculptures, collages, drawings, mixed-media work, etc.) that explores the theme of generational poverty and social justice solutions. Ut Health students and staff please submit via online form https://forms.office.com/r/8Hq1msk5r2, for our community please email your submission to humanities@uthscsa.edu
