Creative Communities are Thriving Communities
We believe in the transformative power of creativity, innate in all people, and in its flexibility to be guided into activities that create lasting change.
TEACHING ARTIST ACADEMY REGISTRATION OPEN
The 2022 Teaching Artist Academy seeks to build the skills and capacities of teaching artists to lead creative engagement activities in school and community settings that strengthen the well-being of young people.—individually, in relationships, and in community.
Two 2.5 hour online sessions will take place in September and October, followed by a two-and-a-half day overnight retreat at the Common Ground Center in Starksboro, VT.
Tuition is on a pay-what-you-can basis.
WHAT IS CULTURAL EQUITY?
Acknowledging and challenging our inequities and working in partnership is how we will make change happen.
To support a full creative life for all, Community Engagement Lab commits to championing policies and practices of racial and cultural equity that build more just, inclusive, equitable and thriving communities.
OUR
MISSION
We bring people of all ages together in projects that activate their creativity to imagine and build more just and thriving communities.
