The event kicks off a series of virtual workshops hosted by Advocacy Through Art, a nonprofit founded by Palo Alto high school students " who are passionate about using art to facilitate community conversations," according to their website.

The workshop, which will include a Q&A session, also covers funding for artist residencies and how to write an artist statement.
