Got extra free time on your hands and interested in learning more about the relationship of place-based art and civic-engagement?
The Corporation for National and Community Service, the federal agency that runs national service programs such as AmeriCorps, produces a regular webinar series from the Office of Research and Evaluation.
One recent webinar featured four panelists from the National Endowment for the Arts who shared how their research sought to measure and understand the interactions between place-based art, civic-engagement, social cohesion, and other community-level outcomes.
Check out the webinar here. Be sure to keep up with future webinars in the series by checking out this link.
