Arts in E duc a tion De sc ription:
“This is a mosaic installation to be created and installed by students… with the intent to illustrate the Riverfronts Community… The imagery will be created by this school’s “advanced art” and “studio” classes and will incorporate the rich history that is… part of their backyard. This school, although historically low performing and economically marginalized, has faculty and administration dedicated to the arts and dedicated to giving these kids new
…this school district has just been elevated to “School in Good Standing” by our State Education Dept. This permanent art installation is an opportunity… to make notable permanent art, feel good about their school and be given an opportunity to succeed...”
Community Arts De sc ription:
“…our productions are presented free of charge, allowing community members, regardless of their financial means (including retirement communities and students) to enjoy professionally performed live theatre. Since our productions emphasize language over visuals, they can be readily appreciated by the visually
return… offering glowing feedback and encouragement.”
Individua l Artist Commission De sc ription:
“The Unspoken: Human Trafficking in Our Own Backyard My objective for this proposed project is to use my creative vision to raise awareness of the impact of human trafficking in our neighborhoods. I will create a series of mixed media art telling the stories of Schenectady County workers whose mission is to support and protect individuals who have been or are at-risk of being
awareness event taking place within the Proctor's Art Complex… Community members will be engaged in the development of each piece (as described in the next section). Grant funds will cover my studio time, art supplies, publicity materials, and the cost of the venue.”
Arts in E duc a tion Goa ls a nd E va lua tions: “Goals for this project are those of any teacher: We want to give kids a new experience. We want them to get their hands dirty and get in there and do “REAL WORK”…. We want them to solve not a theoretical problem; but to take on the challenge of a real problem, to collaborate, solve and implement and take ownership of a job well done… Being involved in a permanent piece of public art… is a huge opportunity for these students. We will be evaluating this project as we go - making sure to correct any workmanship that falls short.. The kids get to be the evaluators as well as the teachers - they know what looks good ! By empowering them, we are preparing them for success down the road. There will also be a Pre and Post Mosaic Test - about their “art making” experience. This will help assess the student’s thoughts about what they have done, what they have learned, and how they see themselves…”
Community Arts Gra nt – Community Que stion:
“The community will actively learn in workshops, classes & performances. All three segments of this project are highly interactive including the performance segment where students will showcase what they have learned. Community members will leave this project with a sense of achievement after being fully immersed and stimulated in the culture of Indian music… The community has stimulated the growth of this project through attendance, word of mouth, immense volunteer efforts, financial and in-kind donations. In fact, it is their involvement that inspires this project to evolve and grow… This year’s project attempts to bring this same enrichment to the community but on a much larger scale through the creation of the Open Space Concert Series and expansion of the Indian Music Caravan Series.”
Individua l Artist Commission - Ca re e r Que stion:
“As an artist, my work is presented primarily through visual storytelling by means of camera, sound and all the other components that make up digital filmmaking. My goals as a filmmaker is to create content: documentary, narrative or experimental films that offer perspective into a world, a mind, a way of life, that has been under-represented by mass media. As an artist, I believe my goal is to provoke thought, encourage dialogue, especially community dialogue, and to bring forth ideas of other possibilities while also challenging the status quo. This project relates to my goal as an artist because sharing these stories will be an
Albany's growing community. It is imperative that conversations encompass the needs, desires and dreams of refugee youth and their families. The project also resonates with me on a much more personal level because I too am an immigrant…”
