Fine Art Photo Lecture Series: Meggan Gould

The exhibition Crafting Democracy: Fiber Arts and Activism debuted in Rochester, New York – home to Susan B. Anthony and Frederick Douglass – along with an eponymous catalogue (RIT Press, 2019). Works by the 30 artists explored how handwork probes the vulnerabilities of citizenship status, while also working toward positive social change. Over the following two years, the exhibit traveled to four additional venues in the Northeast U.S., realizing opportunities for community, conversation, and critique.

For more than five decades, Bill and Jean Stephens have been partners in life and in Art. Their artwork and artistic processes have continued to evolve and expand. The style of Jean and Bills’ work differs widely, yet the work is highly influenced by the natural world around them. They met in the RIT Printmaking Studio in 1972, and both later earned their degrees in the RIT MST Arts Education Program. Continuum is their first exhibition together.

We invite you to the reception for the exhibition Co-Crafting Democracy: Fiber Arts and Activism now entering its third show concept, at University Gallery on the RIT campus. The exhibit is curated by Juilee Decker and Hinda Mandell.
