Category: Annual Convening

2 comments:

  1. Students, staff, faculty, fellows and interns of the Creative Cultural Leadership Program (replace with final title) and the Arts Learning Laboratory bring their ideas and enthusiasm to the Annual Convening. In an inclusive atmosphere of thoughtful exchange, participants share aspects of their research and experimentation in such areas as Arts in Medicine, Land Arts, Dance, Social Practice, Global Intermedia, Community Engagement, and Cultural Leadership. These often intimate offerings of successes and failures provide a plethora of learning opportunities and a sense of community among practitioners of art forms that are often overlooked. This newly formed community can emerge from the convening with the methods, contacts, and motivation they need to continue making meaningful strides in their respective fields.

    1. Hi Noel, this is a great description. I just wanted to share with the group an excellent multi-disciplinary model of an annual convening: The Voice Foundation's Annual Symposium: http://www.voicefoundation.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=57&Itemid=1

      Here, voice therapists, otolaryngologists, singing teachers, acting voice teachers, professional voice users, and others interested in the central theme of voice come together once a year to share insights and findings from practice and research. I think this is a very strong model for us!
