Interested in learning how to create new community-engaged partnerships with multiple partners? This panel will introduce you to faculty colleagues and their community partners who have created equitable partnerships with impact.

Attendees will learn the basics of community-engaged creative activities, including definitions, partnership building, and community engagement practices. Attendees will also learn how presenters are sharing their research experience in publications, presentations, performances, exhibitions, etc. Participants will have the opportunity to join a growing network of campus colleagues who are leading innovative arts and cultural creative community-engaged partnerships.
