UNBOUND: A Tribute to Aaron Swartz

 

Super excited to see this exhibition take place! It is so important and will share wonderful information and community time. The art work will also be brilliant!

From the website of Latino Social Innovation :

A physical exhibition of “Unbound: A Tribute to Aaron Swartz” will be presented in New York City at ThoughtWorks, a progressive technology company built by a community of passionate individuals whose purpose is to revolutionize software design, creation and delivery, while advocating for positive social change. This is the company where Aaron Swartz worked, building software in support of grass-roots political movements. We are thankful to ThoughtWorks for giving this exhibition a physical space and for granting us with the opportunity to bring people together to honor Aaron’s legacy under one roof. We are also thankful to ThoughtWorkers Jared Hatch, Andy McWilliams and Amy Schantz for helping to make the physical exhibit a reality.
