Universities transform art museums into spaces for voting and political discourse

During the final days of this tense election, we take a look at a project fostering a different type of civic space to encourage young people to discuss issues, engage each other and vote. Jeffrey Brown visited the University of Michigan to see how this works. It’s part of our series, Art in Action, exploring the intersection of art and democracy and for our arts and culture coverage, CANVAS.
