Inspired by the words of bell hooks, When We Drop Fear invites artists to explore what unfolds when we release fear’s grip. Evoking the physical act of release, we make space for tenderness, imagination, truth-telling and repair.

Artists are encouraged to consider how fear constrains our bodies, our language, and our dreams- and how art can be a force for healing and collective liberation. Through vulnerability, resistance, storytelling, and the transformative power of care. When We Drop Fear becomes a call to reimagine justice, reclaim joy, and shape new narratives rooted in accountability and connection.
