Upcoming Conference: The Art of Changing the World

The following information is excerpted from a communication issued by Art for Social Change!

The national research project, Art for Social Change! (ASC!), is hosting The Art of Changing the World (ACW) 2017 November 3-5 in Ottawa. Designed for dialogue and exchange, this gathering will provide useful skills, knowledge, and perspectives on a wide range of topics – from emerging practices, facilitation, evaluation, ethics, and new forms of partnerships, to current arts-infused research and funding opportunities/policies. 

ASC! invites you to join other change makers, artists, community-engaged practitioners, and scholars to actively participate in cross-sector dialogue and action-oriented planning about the present and future of this vibrant and fast-growing field of art for social change (ASC) practice in Canada. The workshops, installations and hands-on learning are all designed to create space for exchange and creative exploration across disciplinary boundaries, as well as to provide opportunities for networking and relationship building.
