The Allied Media Conference advances strategies for using media arts to investigate, illuminate and develop visionary solutions to the crises faced by our communities. Through the AMC, held every summer in Detroit, the worlds of media, art, technology, education and social justice are united. In all AMC sessions, participants build on their knowledge and develop relationships that continue to grow throughout the years.
Since its founding in 1999, the AMC has inspired hundreds of new leaders, showcased dozens of innovative popular education tools, incubated cross-sector collaborations and fostered critical dialogue on a host of social justice issues. For artists and activists who return year to year, the Allied Media Conference presents a vehicle for the evolution of their theories and practices towards genuine social change.
