Join us in celebrating the centennial year of Corita Kent with a day of film screenings about Corita’s life and work! Featuring films by Baylis Glascock, Thomas Conrad, Paul Bockhurst, and Aaron Rose.

Corita Kent (1918-1986) was an artist, educator, and advocate for social justice who worked primarily in serigraphy. At the time of her death, she had shown in over 2000 exhibitions around the world, been acquired by prominent public collections, created almost 800 serigraph editions, hundreds of watercolors, and innumerable public and private commissions. Today, Corita holds a special place in the canon of art history, not only as an under-recognized female artist and innovative printmaker, but as a social activist during a turbulent time in US history. Corita’s bright, engaging prints and humanist, activist messages are as relevant today as they were fifty years ago.
