Course description: Community-based art and community-based art education include artists, educators, and cultural workers who provide art experiences to participants outside of traditional K-12 schooling and arts institutions. These experiences provide opportunities for self-motivated inventive learning; art instruction to students with limited access to art; create relationships or connections to a place or community, and create spaces for expressions of identity, care, and advocacy. Community-based programs and community arts includes art educators, teaching artists, and cultural workers creating a variety of out of school programs which includes a dynamic and broad field that intersects studio art, education, museum education, library programming, and more. There is great potential for these programs to inform and expand the field of art, creative practice, and art education. This course will explore a history and broad scope of community arts and education including creative and ethical concerns of creative cultural workers. We will discuss developing public art projects and collaborations to investigate the role of the arts in revitalizing communities through civic engagement, collective care, and advocacy. Students will be encouraged to consider community assets, social justice goals of community arts work, and the importance of critical listening to participants at all levels including students, participants and community members. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
