An Absolute Must-Read
Dunkirk NY – You must read this post on Createquity. It is a wrap-up of the recent NEA Cultural Workforce Forum, and it’s excellent. I have been reading these rather obscure reports from the NEA for awhile now, and basing a lot of my critique of theatre curricula based on its information, but this is the first time I’ve seen the NEA actually hold a forum on this information and discuss the findings. It’s very interesting stuff.
I want to sort through the wrap-up in more detail before commenting on it, as well as try to get in the actual webcast (which is not yet archived). There is a lot to take in here, and a lot of ramifications for arts education. It will take a bit of time, especially over the holidays. -twl
