CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
The 2009 edition of Songwriter's Market is accepting pitch submissions for articles geared toward the music industry. Articles will help aspiring songwriters achieve their goals of getting their songs heard by artists, agents and publishers in the music field. Especially wanted are "Insider Information" articles that take the reader into the process of submitting demos to music companies, with comments from decision-makers. Articles should be 1,500-2,500 words. Pays on acceptance. Pitches only to Greg Hatfield, editor, at greg.hatfield@fwpubs.com.
SHARE YOUR OBSERVATIONS WITH IMAGINING AMERICA'S CURRICULUM PROJECT
On March 16, The Curriculum Project launched its online survey of people who care about how we are educating community arts practitioners. The Project invites people in any of the following five categories to spend a few minutes assessing the current state of community cultural development education, both its strengths and its needs: Community artists and arts/cultural organization leaders; community organization partners (who’ve worked with community arts students); educators (in higher education and in community settings); current students and recent graduates; and friends of the field (basically everyone else with an interest).
Please go to our survey page at http://www.curriculumproject.net/survey.html and select whichever category fits you best. Then just click on the link to take the survey. Other pages at the site provide background information, including a glossary of key terms. Please encourage friends and colleagues to take part any time before the survey closes on June 1st. Give us your email address, and we’ll let you know as soon as the project report is published this fall; you’ll be able to download a copy directly from The Curriculum Project Web site.
The Curriculum Project was conceived by veteran community arts educators and activists as a way of involving people in the community cultural development field in taking stock at his important moment of growth: how are we educating community arts practitioners? How could training in this field be deepened, strengthened, made more effective? What is needed to effectively embody the field’s commitments to scholarship, training, and community engagement? What is needed to support those doing good work and assist those who want to develop new, excellent educational programs in community cultural development?
Thanks for taking part!
