About this Event
You're Invited: “How We All Get Free” – A Pulpit+ Exchange Series
Join us for Iliff’s Pulpit+ Exchange Series, an inspiring series of in-person and virtual gatherings where clergy, lay leaders, activists, scholars, ministers, journalists, and community organizers come together to wrestle with the most pressing questions of our time. Together, we’ll explore powerful stories of hope, healing, and action—each rooted in a shared vision of justice and liberation.
Art, Imagination, and the Work of Freedom
Description: Art has always been a strategy for survival. It has been a way to breathe when the air gets thin, a way to speak when voices are silenced, and a way to dream when the world refuses to imagine anything new. For this conversation, we bring together two artists from different generations whose life’s work demonstrates that creativity is not a luxury, it is a liberation practice.
Helen Littlejohn is a visual artist, poet, and activist whose work invites us to see the beauty, the ache, and the possibility in our shared human story. Through color, texture, and language, her work insists that we look deeply and listen closely to the world we are shaping. She will be joined by Chinelo Tyler, a hip hop artist, preacher, and activist whose lyrical power and theological imagination remind us that truth-telling is an act of resistance and that beats and bars can be a roadmap toward collective freedom.
In this moderated dialogue, we will explore how art becomes protest, how creativity becomes healing, and how artists, regardless of age or medium, become architects of liberation. Together, Littlejohn and Tyler will guide us through the ways art dares us to believe that another world is possible.
