For my piece, I chose to answer the prompt, "If artists are civic leaders, how can your art support justice in education?". The idea behind my billboard design was to illustrate a mix of different ethnicities, races, genders, and sexualities to celebrate the diversity of students in America. I was inspired to make an art piece supporting minorities and the LGBTQ+ community to advocate for equality in education and to fight against the systematic discrimination kids still face in American schools. This topic is so important to me as someone who is part of the LGBTQ+ community, and wants to make a better future possible for every kid. I hope this design will inspire people to take action and make high schools safer and more equal, in a future where anyone can thrive no matter what they look like or who they love.
