The Unity Flag Project
In the summer of 2020, creatives from all over the U.S. were invited to create a Unity Flag in order to promote empathy for bipartisanship in a time of political unrest as a part of Belmont’s Debate 2020 Programming to hang in a gallery, sponsored by Belmont’s Watkins College of Art. Belmont Assistant Professor of Art Dr. Meaghan Brady Nelson hosted a virtual presentation and discussion about the project on October 8 with several of the participating artists, with a goal of exemplifying unification of our nation’s communities through collaborative art making.
