Create. Curate. Care. DESCRIPTION:Pass the Mic! Create. Curate. Care.\nArtists\, curators\, scholars\, and art facilitators recognize that cultural initiatives must respond with more agility and alacrity to the realities of inequity\, in all of its forms. How those responses are effectively enacted is a more complex set of questions. This conference will focus on the political potentials of care and compassion as practiced in the arts. Participants will reflect on the differences between hearing and actively listening\, and between speaking with and speaking to\, in a variety of art-centered exchanges.\n\nHow can we amplify inclusive\, polyphonic narratives based on lived experiences\, instead of the perceived authority of academic or fine arts expertise? How might art workers conceive of their role as facilitation for collaborations and conversations about justice taking place outside cultural institutions? Over two online sessions\, we will explore creative\, curatorial and activist projects focused on toppling hierarchies\, empowering BIPOC voices\, reimagining history\, and centering the voices of historically marginalized authors and creators.  Hear more about cultural initiatives locally and internationally—making change now. \nInformation on conference program and participants. \nThis event is being presented virtually via Zoom. \nRegistration for Friday\, 10/22\nRegistration for Saturday\, 10/23\nPlease note: there are separate registration links for each day of the conference. \nThis event is sponsored by the Evelyn Danzig Haas ’39 Visiting Artists Program. \n  URL:https://wheatoncollege.edu/event/pass-the-mic-create-curate-care/2021-10-22/ LOCATION:Virtual CATEGORIES:Academic,Arts ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://wheatoncollege.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Pass-the-Mic_poster.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Arts at Wheaton":MAILTO:kuszaj_jessica@wheatoncollege.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20211023T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20211023T140000 DTSTAMP:20260501T154824 CREATED:20210902T204652Z LAST-MODIFIED:20211020T013942Z UID:10004981-1634985000-1634997600@wheatoncollege.edu SUMMARY:Pass the Mic!

A lecture by Scott Seider and Daren Graves. DESCRIPTION:Schooling for Critical Consciousness addresses how schools can help Black and Latinx youth resist the negative effects of racial injustice and challenge its root causes. Scott Seider and Daren Graves draw on a four-year longitudinal study examining how five different mission-driven urban high schools foster critical consciousness among their students. The book presents vivid portraits of the schools as they implement various programs and practices\, and traces the impact of these approaches on the students themselves. \nGuests must register (anytime in advance) using this link in order to receive a Zoom invite: \nRegister on Zoom \nHosted by the Consortium for Excellence in Teacher Education\, Education Department\, SGA and the The Marshall Center.
