Now that the artist has sorted through almost a year of Ohioans' observations, hear what she's learned. Roopa will give a presentation about her data analysis, beginning at 6:30 pm.

Two screens will display all 6 films of The Fixers, a series of short films that explore the effects of political policies on the average citizen and what happens when the individual seeks their own solution to change Political Policy.
