Stove Works is proud to participate in Fall of Freedom, a nationwide cultural movement that unites artists, institutions, and communities in celebration of creative expression and solidarity.
Join November Artist in Residence jessica harvey for a Manifesto writing workshop.
Manifestos can be a way to express our most urgent desires- in humor, rage, love, grief, and dissent. In this workshop we will write our own manifestos for this moment in time.
We will look at writing by Octavia Butler, Zoe Leonard, Alexis Pauline Gumbs, Paul Chan, and Demian DinéYazhi’ as a starting point for our own writing. And those who would like to share their work will have the chance to read their manifestos at Art-A-Nooga, starting at 7pm directly after the workshop.
All are welcome, and no previous writing experience is needed.
More about Fall of Freedom
Fall of Freedom is an urgent call to the arts community to unite in defiance of authoritarian forces sweeping the nation.
Our democracy is under attack. Threats to free expression are rising. Dissent is being criminalized. This fall, artists across the country are rising together—activating a nationwide wave of creative resistance.
On November 21–22, 2025, galleries, museums, and creative spaces across the United States will host exhibitions, performances, and public programs that channel the urgency of this moment.
