| Past
experience: I was the implementer for the outreach portion of
Chicago's PUPPETROPOLIS, an international puppet festival, working
with the Chicago Park District and the Field Museum. I set up fourteen
sites of 10 week puppet workshops throughout the city's underserved
areas, wrote an activity guide and coordinated a culminating event
that was attended by over 7,000 people. I also planned and implemented
Evanston Arts Week, the largest dedicated arts week celebration in
Illinois in the year 2001 which included 62 events attended by over
5,000 people. |

| Suggestions
for public humanities projects:I am especially interested in women's
issues. I would like to see a community based exploration of women's
domestic roles and artifacts--for example an exhibition and symposium
on the history of laundry, funded by Benton Harbor's whirlpool corporation.
Start with stones and lye soap and finish with the hi tech wonder
machines of today. And what ever happened to the laundry chute? |
