Where do personal aesthetics/ethics, practice, and producing structure meet? How do artists organize and create sustainable structures for producing/presenting their work? What’s the right approach for you? How do you integrate your values into your work? These are some of the questions we’ll address in an arts field increasingly defined by new approaches to presentation and production, and a new focus on socially engaged artistry. This course will focus on the principles and practices of creative producing using best practices in arts administration and tools employed in socially engaged art. Students will examine diverse approaches to organizing and producing and then will craft a plan for a project or company they are making, would like to make, or would like to see in the world.
