Teresa Mangum & Anne Valk, series editors
This series spotlights the work of artists, scholars, and activists immersed in publicly-engaged projects in which the humanities, arts, and culture inspire community building and civic change. Part exhibition, part documentary, part advice, and part reflection on failures, successes, and possible futures, this series introduces innovative forms of humanities scholarship emerging across the world as many-layered, long-term, complex projects. The goal of the series is to capture significant publicly-engaged arts and humanities collaborations from the perspectives of faculty, students, community members, and organizational partners. The Humanities and Public Life series meets a pressing need of current and future publicly-engaged scholars and partners: documenting projects that model rigorous work, critical thinking about best practices, and strategies for assessing the value and impact of public art, design, and scholarship. Our series welcomes authors who seek both academic and non-specialist readers.
