CATALYST INITIATIVE: LOUISIANA
In this project, artist Nick Slie, with his collaborators at Mondo Bizarro and ArtsSpot Productions, all based in New Orleans, worked with Gulf Future Coalition, a culturally and racially diverse group representing fishermen, cultural workers, and more, who live and work on the Gulf Coast, from Texas to Florida. Their work together focused on using the original show Cry You One as a launching pad for a series of dialogue salons in five states to raise awareness of coastal issues and ensure local participation in decision-making regarding the allocation of Federal dollars coming to the Gulf Coast via the Restore Act.
