I’ve always heard that it’s more difficult to re-teach a student a concept once they’ve learned it incorrectly - and I think the same is true for unlearning. We are creatures of habit, and must make a deliberate effort to do this type of work. Who will lead the charge? If Colombia is any indication, it’s the youth who will continue to push global societies to unlearn. Just as it was here in the United States and around the world during the Black Lives Matter summer protests of 2020, youth are the catalysts for unlearning - and often, art is their medium. One of my favorite concepts that I gleaned from this experience is the idea of Deja Tu Huella. In Latin American cultures, this phrase embraces the action of pushing boundaries with your unique individuality and translates to “leave your mark” in English. One of the youth art exhibits I witnessed was entitled Deja Tu Huella and featured youth contributions of what they hoped to see in Colombia’s future - perhaps their own contributions to the betterment of society. I love the specificity and action-oriented nature of this phrase, and it seems to be fairly embedded in the fabric of Latin American cultures. What could be more profound than doing the hard work of unlearning and passing that on, thereby leaving your mark for the greater wellbeing of society?","PeriodicalId":365625,"journal":{"name":"Creative Generation Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127962077","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During the 2021 Virtual World Summit, titled Arts Impact: Context Matters, over 200 delegates from twenty-six nations on all six continents gathered to network, share research, and examine the multiple and varied ways in which arts assessments are designed and implemented around the world. Throughout the Summit, multiple discussions by various groups of delegates resulted in rich sets of qualitative data that were analyzed and interpreted daily by the conference leaders and rapporteur. These analyses were used to modify and update the concepts and ideas found within the resulting \"Guiding Principles for the Assessment of Arts Learning.\"","PeriodicalId":365625,"journal":{"name":"Creative Generation Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128883959","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In almost all examples, the individuals and organizations involved do their collaborative work through a “network,” using any number of connections and patterns. This qualitative inquiry sought to understand how applying Network Theory to organizational structures can cultivate the conditions to support young creatives. Through literature and conducting interviews with leaders of diverse networks in the arts and cultural education fields, this project provides an overview of Network Theory and examines examples of various models. This report proposes the following set of provocations for the field to interrogate the use of Network Theory in their projects’ implementation: strong connections between the network and its participants, shared power among network leadership and participants, clear expectations about funding, and specific role for young creatives in decision-making.","PeriodicalId":365625,"journal":{"name":"Creative Generation Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116209517","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Pathways for Centering Creative Youth in Community Development: A field scan commissioned by ArtPlace America","authors":"J. Poulin","doi":"10.51163/creative-gen002","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.51163/creative-gen002","url":null,"abstract":"Young people are envisioning the future of their communities. The future is theirs. Youth see the challenges our communities are facing today and understand the need to use their creativity to dismantle our problematic systems. As adults, we must support the creative work of youth, cede power where possible, and uplift their visions for the future. \u0000\u0000To do this, we must understand the immense and expansive impact of creative youth on communities. Through this research initiative, young creative people, their adult allies, and a team of researchers have reviewed literature, data sets, and case studies – comprised of interviews, narratives, and artistic works – to examine the challenges and opportunities that exist at the intersection of arts & culture, community development, and youth development. \u0000\u0000This field scan seeks to answer the question: What impact do creative youth have on communities?\u0000\u0000Following an introduction that includes the research design and methods, we provide an outline of the context of this work that emphasizes where the field is now, as addressed by the current literature and the combined crises and insights of 2020. We then present the key findings that seek to expand on our simple answer to the question posed above presented through the perspectives of young creatives. \u0000\u0000Unabashedly, young creatives believe their projects benefit both people and places and promote more just and thriving communities.\u0000\u0000In the following two sections, we provide emerging lessons that include both additional learnings from the research and a set of researcher-generated provocations articulating the ideas that young creatives shared about the future of their projects in communities.\u0000\u0000Upon deep analysis, we conclude that through creative youth & community development projects, creative young people impact their communities in significant ways which too often go unacknowledged. We conclude that in communities where creative youth & community development projects are present, youth see a future where:\u0000Youth increase creativity and cultivate greater agency in themselves and others\u0000Communities (people and places) are more sustainable and responsive\u0000Youth-serving organizations honor personal identity and build collective belonging\u0000Places and their populations are healthier, safer, and better able to foster wellbeing\u0000Youth and adults catalyze intergenerational cultural continuity\u0000Further, we found an increased importance of partnering across sectors and among stakeholders to increase the impacts of creative youth in communities. Creative youth believe their projects benefit from working “in community” with others, meaning strategically investing time, resources, and relationships with other youth, adults, projects, and organizations. By doing so, they believe their projects have a greater impact on people and places. Through our analysis of the full sample of programs, we discovered a significant portion of the field uses youth development and creative ","PeriodicalId":365625,"journal":{"name":"Creative Generation Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134309331","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
