Since launching our platform in 2017, we have collaborated with curators and programmers from across the country to present film and video programs available for free streaming for a limited time. Each program includes a critical curatorial essay that explores the overarching themes and selections. After the free viewing period has expired, we encourage the public to read the essays and rent the works individually.
Discover the artists form this program by watching recorded talks with Nelson Wu, Basil AlZeri and Farrah Miranda. Audio described versions are available for each one.
