meet in front of the Student Resource Building

Mapping Dissent is a collaborative public art project with queer feminist and Mexico-City based artist, Lorena Wolffer and part of the ongoing Queer Hemispheres Radical Performance Series. During the performance walk, Mapping Dissent will mount and display across campus a collection of testimonies collected at UCSB and in Santa Barbara that queerly and emotionally respond to the aftermath of the 2016 presidential election. Join us! All staff, students, faculty, and community members welcome.
