Change Makers

Arts and Social Entrepreneurship means using your skills as an artist to help find sustainable solutions to our biggest social challenges – in education, the environment, or community health — among others. It means understanding the latest in business-based, non-profit structures; the latest in audience and community engagement; and the latest in community teaching methods. It means becoming part of a generation of artists who are leaders in their communities as they strive to make meaningful social change.

Artists in all fields can be catalysts for community change and invaluable team members for community-based organizations or partnerships of organizations in collective action. This certificate prepares students with arts training in all disciplines (film, creative writing, visual art, theatre, music and dance) for careers in community and civic leadership at non-profits or governmental agencies.
