Thomas Jefferson Center Launches Fundraising Campaign for Art on Trial
The Thomas Jefferson Center has launched an online fundraising campaign for Art on Trial, a virtual exhibit of artworks at the center of actual courtroom battles. Each of the works displayed will represent a legal action in which an argument was made (sometimes successfully, sometimes not) that the artistic expression at issue could be censored or restricted in a manner that did not violate the First Amendment.
What a great idea, and project. If you’d like to donate you may do so here.
