The Milwaukee Art Museum and the Haggerty Museum of Art have convened a symposium on art and social issues, focusing specifically on criminal justice reform. Entitled, "The Milwaukee Model: Envisioning the Role of the Arts in Criminal Justice Reform," the three day series of talks and workshops features a local and nationally renowned panel of artists, curators, academics, and criminal justice experts.

Christian Viveros-Fauné is one of those experts. He’s an art and culture critic and the curator-at-large at the University of South Florida Contemporary Art Museum. He also has a keen interest in art and politics and how they inform each other. Viveros-Fauné discusses the intersection of art and criminal justice with Lake Effect's Bonnie North.
