Portia Cobb & The Community Media Project
UWM Student Union (UN) 2200 East Kenwood Blvd., Milwaukee, WI, United StatesJoin us for two nights celebrating the legendary Portia Cobb, for whom spring 2026 marked the end of a long tenure as Professor at the Peck School of the Arts Department of Film, Video, Animation, and New Genres.
