Course Description:
This course explores the ways in which artists, designers, and citizens work within the public sphere. Students will gain an understanding of socially engaged art and design practice while learning the approaches and skills essential to engagement work. Through ongoing discussions and assignments, students will explore ways that their creative practice can exist outside of and parallel to the traditional art world. They will broaden their understanding of the role that art can play in strengthening and empowering communities.
