DAY WITHOUT ART
Day Without Art began in 1989 to make the public aware that
AIDS can touch everyone, and to inspire positive action. Museums
and art gallery's shut down, sending their staff to volunteer at
AIDS services, or sponsoring special exhibitions of work about
AIDS.
Rainbow Alliance will be covering statues and artwork through
out campus. By removing the art we are so used to, we hope the
campus community will reflect on what AIDS can take from our
lives and how the disease has impacted the creative community.
We will also be wearing red as part of the Amnesty International
programming for the day.
