Catédra Paulo Freire 2026
Revolutionary Power of Art
APRIL 23-24
The Catédra Paulo Freire at Garrett Theological Seminary is hosting an event titled The Revolutionary Power of Art, an interdisciplinary gathering that explores art as a transformative force in spiritual life, community healing, political struggle, and public pedagogy. Inspired by the emancipatory vision of Paulo Freire, this event centers art not as ornament or entertainment, but as a vital site of consciousness, dialogue, and liberation. In a time marked by social fragmentation, racialized violence, economic precarity, and spiritual dislocation, art emerges as a radical practice of remembering, healing, and collective reimagining.
You are warmly invited to this special celebration marking our 10th Anniversary- a milestone made possible by a decade of shared vision, commitment, and community. To commemorate this occasion, we are honored to welcome Dr. Antonia Darder as our guest speaker. She is an international scholar, activist, and artist known for her intellectual depth and unwavering commitment to justice.
