AFP 2019: Engage for Change - Schedule and Registration

The Anne Frank Project is pleased to announce the program for AFP 2019: Engage for Change, the 11th annual Social Justice Festival at SUNY Buffalo State. Sessions are scheduled Tuesday, October 1, through Wednesday, October 3; art exhibits run Monday, September 30, through Friday, October 11.

About the Festival
AFP’s annual festival is an experiential exchange of ideas with a focus on processing theory into practice. We share diverse performances, workshops, and exhibits that actively engage participants in kinesthetic learning opportunities and connect to the festival's theme, AFP's mission, and the life and work of Anne Frank. ?AFP's festival is free and open to the community.

About AFP 2019: Engage for Change
Communities across the world grapple with conflicts, challenging discussions, and injustices that often remain ignored. When these important stories fall silent, communities break apart and individuals are left alone. There is an opportunity within this struggle to unite and rebuild. AFP 2019 will examine unique ways in which people solve problems through the art of collaboration. In the Anne Frank Project, there is a specific philosophy that relates to this year’s theme: we agree we cannot do it alone. Whether we work across disciplines, neighborhoods, or countries, we need each other to manage conflicts, embrace challenges, and stand strong in the face of injustice. In honor of Anne Frank’s would-be 90th birthday this June, we encourage activists, artists, performers, and community leaders to share methods, practices, and experiences that ask people to come together to engage for change.
