Tulsa Artist fellows Sarah Ahmad, Moheb Soliman, Edgar Fabián Frías, and Rafael Corzo will join Dallas-based artist Simeen Farhat in a panel discussion exploring the relationship between artistic practices and immigrant narratives from the perspective of artists with an immigrant background.

Discussion Questions:
1. What do you think is the relationship between art practices and immigrant narratives?
2. What are the experiences of artists who have an immigrant story, and their experiences in the art world and their art practices?
3. What does it mean to be a liminal person and what future directions do you envision for your art practices?
