Artists' Literacies Institute is an institution for the future, an idea born out of a time of crisis that hopes to establish new systems for a more humane, equitable, dignified, and sustainable era to come. ALI reframes art as research, and empowers artists - the producers of our culture, the creators of our social imaginary, and the mediators of our relationships with nature and each other - to lead in building social, civic, and human systems.
