Through collaboration between the Humanities Center, the Director of the Arts, and the Public Works Initiative, Professor Lori Pearson and Director of the Arts Steve Richardson brought leaders of Twin Cities arts organizations to campus for a series of events focused on the arts and democratic engagement. They utilized these events as opportunities for learning, information gathering, and reflection on how to do collaboration between liberal arts colleges and non-profit organizations whose mission is devoted to the arts and community development.
