Then Came Hope: Transforming Trauma Through Arts, Collaboration, and Activism at Castleton University on Oct. 11

Castleton, VT (10/03/2022) — Artist, collaborator, and social activist Traci Molloy returns to Castleton University on October 11 at 12:30 p.m. in Jeffords Auditorium to speak about trauma-informed education, the impacts of heightened anxiety, and the pandemic, and how to utilize artistic collaboration and activism as a tool for coping with trauma.

Molloy utilizes printmaking, drawing, painting, photography, and digital processes to create independent and collaborative works exploring themes of adolescent culture and identity.

She has a particular interest in exploring how humans process trauma and grief, the emotional aftermath of violence, and the ways that American society re-contextualizes history to mask painful truths and nullify collective loss.
