Arts Build Communities classes help professionals connect cultural, community and economic development
Arts Build Communities, through the Bloustein Online Continuing Education Program, is offering several online courses in 2010 that focus on the connection between arts and community health and prosperity.
Two types of courses are being offered: Learning Labs (which are webinars) and Deep Learning courses. There are no required meetings in Deep Learning courses, but they are interactive. Participants engage in online discussions through discussion boards facilitated by the instructor. In studio courses, learners work on real problem-solving projects.
The classes are:
March 16, 2 to 3 pm eastern: Cultural Heritage Tourism Planning Basics
April 14 to May 22: Cultural Economic Development Studio
April 14 to May 20: Programming Cultural Uses
May 26 to July 3: Cultural Community Development Studio
Proceeds from the courses will be used to support Arts Build Communities
