Time Capsule Program and Artists
Explore civil rights through time in a series of five "time capsules" at the ECHO Center.
Engage with art that will help you feel stronger and more optimistic for our collective future while you also learn history that is sometimes "hard" yet always inspiring.

Our participatory wellness arts programs feature ten of Clemmons Family Farm's fantastic collaborating artists, each in a "time capsule" that highlights civil rights milestones through curated posters that share some of the important backlashes and frontlashes in this history. The time capsule artists will co-create art with you in a way that intentionally helps you experience joy, unity, inspiration, and hope-- all of which are important resilience skills for young and for old.
