The MRISJ Civic Speaker Series presents The Aftermath of Fast Fashion!

Join us on Thursday, April 18 for a special panel discussion with the minds behind Aftermath, a large-scale multi-media sculpture and art advocacy collaboration.

Panelists will discuss 
the power of art as advocacy, putting ‘buycotting’ into action, the lasting environmental impact of textile pollution from throwaway consumption and “fast fashion” and how it all connects to social justice.

MRISJ thanks Santander Bank for their generous support of our Civic Speaker Series.

4-5:30pm- The Aftermath of Fast Fashion
5:30-6:30pm- Meet & Mingle Reception
  • Attendees are invited to join us after the event for a reception in the RSU Lower Foyer near the Aftermath exhibit. Please be sure to register for both the panel discussion and Meet & Mingle option in your registration if you plan to join us for the reception.
