Communities Are Creative

Our next entry comes from Micah Goldstein via new Creative Community Fellow Jane Wegscheider and is a great video about an annual event in their Western Massachusetts community.

Micah Goldstein is an emerging videographer who participated in our ARTeens program for four years. The video is about a creative community event we do called our Fabulous Hilltown Draw-Around: a 12 hour mark-making extravaganza at a local historic gym. The Draw-Around is directed by my colleague, Laura Iveson, who is interviewed in the video.

Field Notes

Field Notes is a means of amplifying and widening the conversations the NAS team has with leaders in the field and experts outside the field. The entire staff will contribute our observations and insights and share a commitment to providing something useful, useable. We see our job here as mining, distilling and contextualizing ideas; providing the morals of these stories, the frameworks that anyone can use; and offering everyone in the field the opportunity to discuss the underlying issues.
