Assembly collaborated with Performance Artist Ayana Evans for C.R.E.A.M. (Cash Rules Everything Around Me): A career fair for more than survival. This event was a non-traditional fair where we held resumé writing workshops, panel discussions discussions about arts+ tech careers, collective artmaking for centering and community care.
About the artist
Assembly
Artists
Founded in 2016, Assembly offers system-impacted young people aged 18-26 an inroad to art and connections to working artists, while serving as an alternative to incarceration and its intersecting systems of oppression. The curriculum empowers young people to take charge of their own life story and envision a future through art. The program diverts both misdemeanor and felony charges and in 2020 expanded to include a peer-to-peer referral model, allowing us to broaden our reach.
