Freedom means something different to every person, yet its value is a common bond between Americans. In these polarized times, Freedom: Art as the Messenger aims to provide a unifying platform of civility and creativity. Artists from across the country — in a wide range of media–share innovative and thought-provoking perspectives on freedom and the enduring need for its protection.

The Cato Institute presents its inaugural art exhibition, Freedom: Art as the Messenger. You can follow the exhibition using the hashtag #ArtMessenger.
