1. Community Arts Convening and Research Project: Call for Proposals

   Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) seeks applications for three to four writing group fellowships to participate in the 2010-2011 Community Arts Convening and Research Project. The Convening and Research Project is funded by the Nathan Cummings Foundation and sponsored by MICA. It is guided by the vision that community-grounded arts and culture enhance the well-being, development, empowerment, and voice of disenfranchised communities. The Project provides a platform for college and university faculty and students; community-based practitioners; and community scholars, leaders, and youth to meet and generate new ideas; share resources and models for best practices in the field; reflect new curricula and pedagogy; define and solve problems; develop action plans; identify and conduct new research; develop leadership in the field, and cultivate new partnerships.

2. Launching Community Arts Perspectives, Volume II

   Volume II of this publication is composed of 32 texts reviewed and selected by editor Amalia Mesa-Bains and the national editorial board of the project. These texts formed the basis for the topics examined at the project's second convening, which took place at Cal State Monterey Bay in April 2009.
