Making Knowledge: Democracy, Cultural Partnerships, and the University
University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA
Friday – Sunday, November 5-7, 2004
What happens when democracy, imagination, and scholarship converge? Drawing on the groundbreaking work of the University of Pennsylvania?s Center for Community Partnerships, this year?s conference will explore the collaborative production of new knowledge for the public good. Citizen scholars, working in and with universities, push the limits of community-based work in the arts and humanities.
Join us in Philadelphia this fall for Imagining America?s annual national conference. Based at the University of Michigan, Imagining America: Artists and Scholars in Public Life is a national consortium of colleges and universities committed to fostering campus-community partnerships in the arts and humanities.
The conference program will showcase new research produced through cultural partnerships. Sessions will focus on innovative projects at the Center for Community Partnerships and major Imagining America initiatives, including the Tenure Transformation Team, research on excellent campus-community collaborations, and Sekou Sundiata?s ?dramatorio? in progress, The America Project.
