Community arts institutions

These are the directions. Follow them carefully. You will write a draft of a 4 – 5 page paper. You will use your notes, previous discussion forum responses (you are allowed to re-use your own words) and outside articles and other sources. If you would like to include some photos or other visual aids you may do so, but label them clearly. Outline the issue: What are community arts institutions? Why are community arts institutions important to New York’s social, cultural and economic life? (Use as many sources as you like here. Make sure to cite them).Overall, based on your research (you should use sources here as well), what are some of the challenges faced by CAI in the wake of covid? Use statistics and numbers here that you get from outside sources. Explain the goals, to the best of your understanding, of this research project.
