Michael Strand moderated a powerful and provocative conversation about community at the “Present Tense” conference. Watch the video to hear Tanya Aguiñiga, a furniture maker and designer, and Nicholas Galanin, a jewelry maker and artist, discuss how their backgrounds and experiences have each shaped the way they think about community, issues of equity and appropriation, and the role of craft as a tool to instigate change.

The full conference video playlist is available on our YouTube channel.
