Multi-disciplinary artist Roxana Alger Geffen leads a creative evening of craftivism, conversation, and civic engagement. This Salon Night includes everything you need to make your own RBG-inspired dissent collar. Start the evening with an artist talk with Geffen as she discusses her Dissent Collars Series and her work, then join her in Notorious RBG: The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, where she will highlight two of her pieces featured in the exhibit. Next, Geffen will demonstrate the process of creating a dissent collar, then put your learning to work and craft your own! No artistic experience needed!
