grassroots art

Grassroots art refers to artistic expressions that emerge from local communities rather than established institutions or commercial galleries. Often created by artists who are not formally trained, this art reflects the unique cultural, social, and political issues of the community. It aims to engage the public and foster a sense of identity and belonging. Grassroots art can take many forms, including mural painting, community theater, and public installations, emphasizing collaboration and participation. This approach champions the voices and experiences of everyday people, making art accessible and relevant to broader audiences.
