On April 26, 2022, over 100 people from across Emerson's campus and the city of Boston gathered at the Spring Showcase to celebrate the work of students and partners from the past semester. Through co-created film, performance, and virtual reality, as well as student and partner reflections, we saw glimpses into the transformational learning, connecting, and healing that took place within Social Impact Studios this spring.
