Keystone Progress and CDCP Present The Art of Democracy

Keystone Progress Education Fund and Casey Droege Cultural Productions are thrilled to present our exhibit The Art of Democracy. This exhibit features work that creates a dialogue around democracy as a whole and the current political climate, especially in a year when we have local/municipal elections. Exploring how democracy impacts censorship, reproductive justice and abortion access, workers' rights, and economic justice, this show demonstrates what a healthy democracy should look like.
