THE UNRAVELING -A Future Without USAID and its Global Implications

The Warehouse Arts District Association (WADA) is proud to present a thought-provoking exhibition centered on the work of artist Ali Syverson.

This exhibit is part of WADA’s ongoing commitment to bringing timely and meaningful local, regional, and national themes to our community — using art as a unique lens through which we can explore complex topics.
Through a month-long exhibit and a series of educational events at the ArtsXchange, audiences are invited to engage with the history and evolving role of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). Since 1961, USAID has played a key role in global development, humanitarian assistance, and U.S. foreign engagement.The Unraveling raises questions about what the future might look like without this agency and invites thoughtful dialogue on the broader implications for communities around the world. Artist Ali Syverson, alongside special guests, will guide conversations and events exploring how art can help us reflect on global systems, policy, and humanitarian impact.Join us as we consider what’s at stake — and how creative expression can foster deeper understanding and connection.
