The exhibition commemorates the Feb. 1, 2017, demonstration that resulted in the arrests of 70 students and community members in Baker Center.
The Students for Law, Justice & Culture, with support from the Center for Law, Justice & Culture and the LGBT Center, are curating an Anniversary Exhibition on Feb. 27 through March 1 in the Trisolini Gallery (Baker 4th Floor).
The exhibition commemorates the Feb. 1, 2017, demonstration that resulted in the arrests of 70 students and community members in Baker Center. It will provide a space for those affected by the Travel Ban, the Bobcat 70 arrests, and the subsequent discussions on campus protest to speak about their experiences and share their creative and academic endeavors on these topics.
The exhibition will feature art, academic work, multimedia projects and artifacts from the demonstration created or provided by those affected by the events. The group is now collecting submissions from students, faculty, staff, and community members in the form of: papers, photos, documents, art, multimedia projects, performances, testimonies, poetry, and artifacts (banners, signs) from the demonstration.

They are led by President and Vice President, Jessica Roth and Francisco Cintron, and have been working to create discussion around the impacts of the Travel Ban, the Bobcat 70 arrests, and the Freedom of Speech Interim Policy on the Ohio University campus.
