Can AI create or does it just imitate? The reality is, the conversation is already happening: only now, you’re a part of it. Presented by Edutainment Productions in partnership with the DC Commission on the Arts & Humanities we're having the discussion when it's needed most. Artificial intelligence is changing how art is made, who gets credit, and what the future of creative work looks like. But beyond the headlines and hot takes, what does it actually mean for artists, educators, and the communities that shape culture? This live panel brings together voices from across the country to dig into the real questions about ownership, ethics, equity, and sustainability, challenging us to think bigger about what creativity becomes next. No jargon. No gatekeeping. Just an honest, necessary conversation about where we are and where we’re going. Panelists: Fatima Farzana: International Artist & Designer Justice Dwight: Professional Artist & Muralist Mark Cooley: GMU Arts Professor & International Artist Jozie Perry: VCU MA & Literary Professional Tim Friedlander: NAVA President and Co-Founder Bomani Armah: Producer, Emcee, & Educator Come listen. Come question. Come be part of shaping what’s next.
