Art censorship is alive and well on social media, where major tech companies serve as arbiters, dictating what content is seen and what is banned or pushed into the digital margins through algorithmic control. This can have dire consequences for emerging artists who use online platforms to build their careers, earn income, and display their art in otherwise repressive societies.

Emma Shapiro (Don't Delete Art), Elizabeth Larison (National Coalition Against Censorship), and Sibila Sotomayor Van Rysseghem (LASTESIS) will explore the reality of artistic suppression on social media and the tangible impacts censorship on digital platforms can have on artists' livelihoods, emotional well-being, and free expression.

Presented by 'Artists at Risk Connection' and 'Art at a Time Like This.'
