Bradford C. Grant (Howard University)

In this public lecture hosted by the Center for Learning and Student Success (CLASS), Grant invites participants to re-envision the nature and purpose of drawing. Grant shifts away from drawing’s conventional focus on output and artistic expression and toward a broader exploration of drawing as a means to seeing ourselves and our world more clearly. A past president of the Center for Contemplative Mind in Society, Grant offers us the opportunity to (re)discover drawing as a route to mindfulness, reflection, and transformational personal and social change in an era of vast inequalities.

This event is part of Syracuse Symposium’s year-long series on “Conventions.”
