Join us on May 14 at 6 p.m. for a special artist talk and exhibition walkthrough of Instructions for Unrest: Art Against Complacency. Presented by Space 4 Art and curated by Alessandra Moctezuma, this gathering offers a deeper look into a powerful group exhibition that positions art as a tool for disruption, resistance, and social change.

Featuring insights from participating artists, the evening invites audiences to engage directly with the ideas and urgencies shaping the work— from confronting systemic inequities to challenging silence in moments of political tension. Through conversation and guided exploration, this walkthrough encourages viewers to question complacency and consider their role in shaping more just collective futures.

This Space 4 Art-produced exhibition is the third of seven as part of our year-long residency at Art Produce, funded by a generous grant from the Prebys Foundation.

The programming partnership between Space 4 Art and Art Produce aims to expand support for local artists, deepen community engagement, and strengthen the city’s creative ecosystem through exhibitions, workshops, artist talks, and cross-organizational collaboration.

The Prebys grant aims to help solve structural problems such as the lack of affordable arts spaces in which community-based groups like Space 4 Art can produce accessible arts programming.

The Space 4 Art @ initiative provides a synergistic means for activation at Art Produce, which remains fiercely committed to building on decades of creative experimentation and community-building in North Park.
