In conjunction with Andy Warhol | Ai Weiwei, The Warhol’s education studio The Factory hosts a postcard activity during the Three Rivers Arts Festival. This activity, inspired by the British Red Cross’s Postcards for Syria project, allows participants to write their own messages, produce meaningful imagery, and create an exchange with refugees under the themes of “hope, humanity, and home.” Ai Weiwei, both artist and activist, has devoted much of his recent work to the trials of the refugee crisis, with a new studio on the Greek island of Lesbos—a key point of entry into the European Union for thousands of refugees.
