Artists at the Community Development Table

Date: Thursday, July 18, 2019
Time: 8:00AM – 5:00PM (Breakfast and lunch will be provided)
Location: The Brightside – 905 E. Third Street, Dayton, OH 45402
Cost: Free, but registration is required (see below). Only 50 spots are available and will be reserved on a first come, first served basis.

About the Event:

Integrating artists and arts organizations into discussions about public policy, civic systems, and community development initiatives grows increasingly critical, but many artists and arts administrators don’t feel empowered to engage in these conversations.

Join Americans for the Arts and Culture Works on July 18 for a workshop that will give you practical tools and ideas of how to apply your artistic discipline and creativity to problem solving within your community. This workshop will include case studies, creative group exercises, and opportunities to hear from local artists who are already engaging in this work. Come away feeling reinvigorated and ready to make change!

Facilitators

• Sierra Leone, Spoken Word Artist
• Jes McMillan, Visual Artist
• Roseann Weiss, Creative Consultant
• Con Christeson, Community Artist
