Course Description: 

This course provides an overview of arts-based research methods for collective action. In this course, participants will explore the benefits and challenges of arts-based methods for community-based research, evaluation, advocacy, and collective action. Potential methods may include but are not limited to: participatory visual methods (i.e., photovoice, digital storytelling, cellphilms), theatre-informed research, poetry, body-mapping, creative non-fiction, and more. Through interactive and experiential sessions, students will gain practical skills in the "why" and "how" of using participatory art-making for community dialogue, engagement and empowerment, as well as explore how to ethically design, initiate, analyze and share arts-based research to foster equitable collaboration and drive social change. Ideal for students, artists, community organizers, researchers, and social service professionals, this course equips you to harness the potential of the arts for meaningful community engagement and knowledge sharing.
