Description:
In this course, students of all majors are encouraged to activate their skills and interests to make work in, with, and for the communities they care about. Now more than ever, creative voices are needed within our various communities to uplift, inspire, challenge, inform, support, collaborate, activate, and amaze one another. Whether you define ‘community’ as your local neighborhood, a shared identity, an online group, a common cause, or something else altogether, this course is designed to give you the history, skills, and experience to create socially-engaged artwork in various public arenas. Through an interdisciplinary, hybrid approach utilizing deeply engaged in-person and remote meeting forms, students will be introduced to several artists and organizations as well as develop projects that respond to their own interests and contexts.
