Dear CAP and MACA Students,
I am currently working on starting up an online journal in conjunction with the National Art Education Association Student Chapter. The purpose of this journal is to draw attention to the importance of bringing art into the public realm. The journal will be broken up into three sections: Art Educators, Community Project Coordinators, and Public Artists. I am currently seeking out individuals who are interested in helping out with this project. The first issue of the journal, which will appear online, and if possible in hard copy in select locations on campus. There are many ways in which you can contribute. We are in the process of coordinating our first meeting where we will discuss topics such as interviewing individuals and doing write ups on interesting events, the layout and structure of the journal, as well as writing for the journal on your own behalf whether it be about a project that you participated in/coordinated or an article discussing in general your opinions about bringing art into the community.
I will also be receiving submissions from MAT students and other MICA community members who bring art in to the public. My hope is that by creating this journal and having it readily available to the local community; we can promote the importance of art and influence artists who read it consider the possibility of sharing their skills and talents with their local community.
As stated above we are currently coordinating our first meeting.
If you are interested in participating please contact the CAP office at cap@mica.edu or 410.225.2347
