    • site visits to Philadelphia cultural institution Taller Puertorriqueño; Mural Arts’ Kensington Storefront; and other key sites around the city;
    • an in-depth panel discussion between students and Philadelphia community arts organizations in operation for over 25 years, including Taller Puertorriqueño, Asian Arts Initiative, Village of Arts & Humanities, Brandywine Workshop, Scribe Video Center, Painted Bride Art Center, and Fleisher Art Memorial;
    • a funder discussion between representatives of the Leeway Foundation, the Stockton Rush Bartol Foundation, the Knight Foundation, and more.
