Forwarding visual culture as foundational to a representative democracy.

Our vision

As a catalytic civic initiative, Vision & Justice produces original research and programs that highlight the foundational role of visual culture in America’s representational democracy, emphasizing the importance of art and culture in advancing justice. Through institutional collaborations, leadership convenings, publications, and public programs, the initiative supports current and future leaders in advancing representational excellence.

“How many movements began when an aesthetic encounter indelibly changed our inherited perceptions of the world?”

— Sarah Lewis, Founder of Vision & Justice
