Artists Who Don't Cry in Convertibles

Who are the Artists Crying in a Convertible? They're the artists with generational wealth, time to do 100 residencies, and have a lot to say. They talk-the-talk, but never actually put in the work for active change.The Artists Who Don't Cry in Convertibles is a satirically sharp curatorial based-story containing practical tips. Five city teens navigate the chaotic process of putting together an art exhibition. The goal is to spotlight 5 artists who are authentic practitioners of generating social value and healthier communities through creative action.From classrooms and cafes to retail floors and therapy offices, these artists prove that creativity isn't a luxury. The role of the true artist is a radical act of service. As the teens challenge the cultural institutions acting as gatekeepers, they reveal a new era of art: one where the true medium is the health of the community itself.
