Work from the members of the Arts and Culture Group

Hey guys!

First off, I want ed to remind everyone that they should join the Arts & Culture Google group, as I have found it helpful in answering some of the questions I had about our projects and the group in particular.

My research so far has lead me to the efforts of some of the group members, and finding simillar kind of grassroots campaigns in other cities that might help offer inspiration/guidance to the current members of the MMP Arts and culture group. Just for our reference, here are a few links to the work of some of the artist in the group.

- - Article about the RECLAIM PRINT project. (Beth Pulcinella)

- - A blog of multimedia interviews genreally focusing on social issues/change. (Mariel Walloff)

- - Philadelphia Students Union. (Jacob Winterstien)

The next few links are of examples of what other people are doing to help encite change.

- - Media Action Grassroots Network (Looking at the Members list will give you many different examples of other groups that are like MMP, and can give you ideas for potential group functions.

- - Mural Arts Program (Just incase you don't know about it already.)

- - Philadelphia Association of Community Development Corporations. (Provides a link of other community development groups that might be interested in cooperating with MMP/Arts and culture.)

- - Meshed Histories: The Influence of Screen Printing on Social Movements. (Interesting article that talks about some of what Pat talked about in his original Arts and Culture pitch.


Okay! Thats all for now!
