SovereignFutures will kick off on Thursday, April 4, marking the beginning of a new project that #utulsa hopes to turn into an arts triennial. During a four-day gathering, artist-led projects in multiple locations will explore the theme of sovereignty through the lens of food, land, speculative futures, and histories of the place now called #Oklahoma. Convening sites will include CircleCinema, FultonStreet918, an independent bookstore on Black Wall Street; the OsageNation’s Harvest Land Farm; the historically Black pioneer town of BoleyOklahoma, GuthrieGreen, and more. Allison Glenn, a visiting curator in charge of organizing Sovereign Futures, conceived of it as “an opportunity to understand what might be possible” if Tulsa makes it a triennial. #tulsa #art #artist #food #land #history #blackwallstreet #culture #education
