The Millennials' Orchestra - Marketing and Fundraising Strategies for Engaging Millennial Audiences and Donors in the Classical Symphony Orchestra Concert Experience
21st Century marketing and fundraising strategies for engaging the next generation of audiences and donors in cultural arts experiences for years to come.
Melissa Slaven-Warren creates t-shirt designs through her company Meliciously Yours that weave together messages of historical femininity from art and literature with modern feminism. The document discusses gender roles for women in polite Victorian society, including creating a peaceful home and family while having no legal rights or education. It also covers how art and literature from this era began questioning social and sexual identity norms. Slaven-Warren draws influences for her designs from these gender roles, works of art, literature, and the concept of sisterhood to portray modern feminist messages.
This course examines changing ideas about cities and their impact on American lifestyles, focusing on New York City. Students will analyze how public policy shapes cities by studying New York City government's role in service delivery, economic growth, and urban issues like development, education, welfare, and crime. The course will use theories from social sciences to understand cultural, political, and social forces influencing cities. Students must complete a paper analyzing a past or present NYC development project and a final paper on an assigned topic.
Putting Creativity to Work: Creative Placemaking with People at the CenterPlace Maker
Marty Pottenger, director, Art at Work
Arts projects that focus on engagement and collaboration outside the arts sector are sometimes the most successful, but are often the most difficult to complete successfully. A practitioner’s seasoned perspective on creating work that engages and transforms communities, we will learn about projects with New York City’s Department of Environmental Protection/Local 147 Sandhog’s Union, a city-wide gathering at Union Square four days after 9/11, and a national arts project with 30 minimum wage workers and 30 multi-millionaires. Presentation will also include Art At Work is a national initiative to improve municipal government and the communities they serve through strategic arts projects with municipal employees, elected officials, residents and artists. Creative Placemaking with people at the center, AAW strengthens community resilience and generates cultural, civic and economic vibrancy by engaging people in making and experiencing art that matters.
NEA Update on Creative Placemaking Research and ProgramsPlace Maker
Sunil Iyengar, Director, Office of Research and Analysis, National Endowment for the Arts, will present the NEA’s latest research and thinking on creative placemaking in America and will be joined by Jason Schupbach, Design Director who will provide and update on NEA creative placemaking programs.
The document discusses several topics related to spaces and places, including: how spaces can be gendered, raced, or classed; how playground spaces can become gendered through teacher instructions; spaces in "figured worlds" like romance and socialization into those worlds; socialization into being a "college student"; expressions of identity through lawn art in small towns; pedagogies of place and design; segregated places by race and class; transitions and phases of transitions like endings, neutral zones, and new beginnings; and transitioning to retirement. It also announces an upcoming online chat about life transitions.
American culture flourished following independence, led by scholars like Noah Webster and artists like Charles Willson Peale. Republican virtues of self-reliance and sacrifice were promoted. Schools added programs to educate republican women. The population doubled every 20 years to over 12 million by 1830, driven largely by births rather than immigration. Mobility increased as people moved west for new opportunities. Dating replaced arranged marriages as women gained independence in choosing partners. The Second Great Awakening sparked religious revivals and growth of new denominations. Improvements in travel, trade, and specialization supported a growing economy and rise of businesses and shopping.
The document summarizes key points about arts and entertainment coverage in the media:
1) The line between news and entertainment content is increasingly blurred, as news organizations feel pressure to provide audiences with what they want in addition to what they need.
2) Arts and entertainment coverage provides relief from more serious news topics and includes coverage of music, movies, art, celebrities, and culture across various media platforms.
3) While coverage focuses more on "low culture" or popular culture, there has been a decline in coverage of "high culture" arts despite growing interest, likely due to commercialization and a focus on what is worth paying for rather than artistic merit.
Culture and Popular Culture: a case for sociologyFernando Ordoñez
This document summarizes the relationship between cultural sociology and the study of popular culture. It discusses how popular culture has been defined and approached by sociologists, focusing on two main traditions: the production of culture perspective, which examines cultural industries and institutions, and interpretivist approaches that consider meaning, consumption and representation. While cultural sociology offers important tools for understanding popular culture, much current work is now done outside of sociology by interdisciplinary fields like cultural studies that have a bias toward viewing popular culture through the lens of mass media. However, the author argues cultural sociology is still relevant to topics like new communication technologies and popular culture's influence in other areas of social life.

Gustav Gerstle conducted research on how to increase the role of music at his school. He surveyed students and teachers about their experiences with and interest in music. He found strong support for offering a music class, holding student concerts twice a year, dedicating funding to music, and surveying students about what types of music they want to learn. He played two songs, Für Elise and Hands Sealed with a Kiss, and made recommendations to apply for a music class, hold student concerts, dedicate funding to music, and survey students about music preferences.
Call for Applications, Workshop on "Minorities and Popular Culture in the Mod...Encyclopaedia Iranica
Thanks to modern mass communication media and commercial entertainment, popular culture has increasingly become a large industry geared for massive consumption while engendering and contesting national and communal identities. Since late nineteenth century, Middle Eastern minorities have contributed to the making of popular culture industries as public performers, producers, writers, filmmakers, musicians, etc. Meanwhile, popular culture has been a crucial tool in constructing public imagery of both majority and minority ethnic and religious communities. Thus, popular culture has been a site of contradictions and contestations.
This workshop aims at exploring the contribution of all religious and ethnic minorities to the popular culture industries and how popular culture products have represented minorities and dealt with the minority question in modern Middle East during the twentieth century and at present. The workshop hopes to examine national, regional, and cross-regional case studies covering the area from Iran to Morocco, from Turkey to Sudan and beyond. Comparative and diasporic studies are particularly welcome.

Laura Ager: Universities and festivals: thinking critically about cultural pr...Phil Jones
This document discusses the relationship between universities and cultural festivals. It notes that universities are increasingly partnering with festivals as part of their public engagement and knowledge exchange agendas. However, universities are also facing budget pressures that make them more exclusive and corporate. The document considers different perspectives on what festivals represent, from temporary spaces of freedom to opportunities for resistance or commercial recuperation. It raises questions about the role of universities in festivals and how collaborations might enable public cultural programming or risk being co-opted by market forces.
This mood board targets female students and part-time workers aged 16-24 in Britain. The target demographic is likely on the lower-middle social scales of B, C1, C, and D, as cinema is inexpensive. The target psychographics are Explorers, Aspirers, and Succeeders as they are experimental, engaged, and likely employed, making them more able to invest in new films at the cinema.
Media culture, audience reception & cultural studiesbhattprakruti20
This document discusses key concepts in media culture and cultural studies. It notes that communication and community are linked, and that media are technologies of communication that produce and disseminate meaning. Cultural studies of popular media seeks to analyze the representations, ideologies, and political ideas embedded in mass media entertainment. It also examines the financial sources and sponsors behind representations. Audience and reception studies are important components that look at how audiences receive and respond to media messages and the effects they generate.
The Rise in Awareness Regarding Culturally Appropriating CostumesMaisie_Talbot
As advances in communication and technology blur the lines between nation, race, and geography, the concept of cultural appropriation has gained traction in a mainstream audience. Defined by Richard A. Rogers in a paper written for the Northern Arizona University as “the use of a culture’s symbols, artifacts, genres, rituals, or technologies by members of another culture,” cultural appropriation has led various ethnic groups to cry foul at instances they feel either stereotype or reduce their roots.
This document summarizes research on modeling tourist behavior on guided walking tours to inform the design of digital mobile city guides. The researchers observed three guided tours in Brighton, England during the Brighton Fringe Festival. They analyzed aspects of the tours like the guides' behavior, visitors' characteristics and behavior, tour content and structure, and the interaction between guides and visitors. The results indicated that tours are multimodal and multidimensional, and mobile guides could help support this. The researchers plan to conduct follow up focus groups with volunteers who take professionally guided tours to further discuss experiences.
1. The document discusses intercultural communication and relationships, focusing on how love, romance, and family have become globalized through international marriages and relationships.
2. It explores how cultural discourses of love, romance, gender, and sexuality have become intertwined and influence people's emotional lives across borders.
3. The phenomenon of mail-order bride websites is analyzed as a system that facilitates the global division of reproductive labor by allowing men to find wives from other countries.
Anuar Andres Lequerica Baladi - Great Games for Learning for High School Stud...SeriousGamesAssoc
This document lists and describes several video games that can be used to educate high school students through reflection and learning. It discusses how Civilization V can teach history, political science and economics. SimCity and Cities: Skylines are described as fun ways to learn about urban systems and infrastructure like water supply. Gone Home and The Sims 4 are said to provide opportunities to reflect on topics like game design, narrative, psychology, sexuality and human behavior. Papers, Please, Democracy 3 and Plague Inc. allow players to consider issues involving immigration, national security, politics and viral outbreaks. Overall, the games highlighted offer engaging formats for learning subjects like physics, math, and analyzing systems through play.
Cultural studies has limitations including a lack of adequate knowledge, difficulty defining the best culture, and missing reality. Some elements that affect the limitations of cultural studies are clashes of civilizations, conspiracy theories, and cultures needing deconstruction. Popular culture aspects related to the limitations of cultural studies include advertisements, TV serials, mass media, politicians, gender issues, high and low culture, and cricket.
This chapter discusses cultural geography and how culture shapes and is shaped by space, place and landscape. It examines fundamental aspects of culture like language and religion, which demonstrate both globalizing and localizing trends. Cultural geographers also study other forms of cultural identity and how they relate to resisting dominant cultural patterns. The chapter explores the globalization of culture as well as local attempts to resist globalization through asserting distinct cultural identities.
Gramsci's theory of cultural hegemony argues that states use cultural institutions to maintain power over capitalist societies. The state raises the population to a level that benefits the ruling classes through education and legal systems. Popular culture is shaped by the state to adapt society's morality and civilization to the needs of economic production. For example, modern soccer became standardized and centralized under state influence, unlike traditional village football which was irregular and governed by local customs. Gramsci saw how shifts in the state and relations between social classes transformed popular culture and cultural authority over time.
Cultural studies has several limitations, including a lack of adequate knowledge about cultures. It can be difficult to define which aspects of a culture should be the focus of study. Additionally, cultural studies sometimes focuses too much on current pop culture topics rather than studying the body of work from the past. This has led to criticisms that cultural studies practitioners know a lot of interesting facts but lack deep knowledge about the meanings and interactions of cultures.
This proposal outlines plans to design a user-friendly website for Trenton elections that provides up-to-date information for voters, detailed candidate profiles, and engages younger demographics through social media. The target audience is predominantly black and Hispanic men and women between ages 24-44 who are lower to lower-middle class. Special features of the website would include interactive Twitter and Facebook pages to share updates and foster discussion around the mayoral elections.
Pop music has greatly influenced youth culture by creating subcultures centered around different music genres like punk, grunge, and heavy metal. Young people have formed social groups defined by their favorite styles of music and constructed their identities around pop music by adopting certain fashion styles and attitudes associated with those genres. Examples include punks, teddy boys, and mods who based their identities on their preferred type of popular music.

16-24 year olds have grown up in a digital world and rely on the internet for communication, entertainment, and knowledge. They cruise different styles and cultures online, taking what they like and filtering out the rest. This has led to an era where experiences are highly valued over defined groups.
While ambitious and passionate, they also crave personal recognition and worry about failure to achieve their goals. Anything perceived as lacking control causes stress.
To effectively reach this demographic, brands must have a strong online presence where they interact and engage audiences. They should focus on creating memorable experiences rather than targeting specific tribes. Most importantly, they must help address 16-24 year olds' social concerns and allow self-expression

The Watermelon Woman
We've seen that queer aesthetics are the materials, methods, techniques, and effects that support queer
poesis – queer self making and queer social making.
What techniques do the films Watermelon Woman and Nitrate Kisses use in order to dramatize queer
poesis, and to what ends?
1. Intermediality: relations between media as meaningful as content within medium.
2. montage: construction requires active viewers putting together the pieces.
3. Self-naming: “I am a Black, lesbian filmmaker.” Hammer's reflection in mirror.
4. embodied performance: performing as “Cheryl” in front of camera; musical
performances included in the film.
5. creation of “historical material” (mockumentary AND mock-autobiography)

This document provides an introduction and overview of a thesis exploring how high technology has impacted the ethos of American Millennials born after 1979. It discusses how Millennials have grown up in an environment dominated by rapid technological advancement and how this has shaped their cultural values and behaviors. In particular, it notes that Millennials' cultural transmission has increasingly come through virtual and technological means rather than traditional heritage and traditions. This is argued to be neutralizing American culture and generating conflicts between generations. The introduction sets up an examination of literature on how factors like politics, technology use, workplace interactions, parenting, and a growing sense of entitlement have compounded to influence the Millennial ethos in America.

This document summarizes a case study on using a mobile app to engage young people with classical music audiences. Focus groups with 18-25 year olds provided feedback on the proposed app from the London Symphony Orchestra. While the app could help with ticket sales, participants felt it would do little to expand the traditional, aging audience demographic. Barriers included that classical music requires more intellectual investment than pop music. The digital also has limits in translating the live experience. Networks can reinforce social structures through inaction and exclusion. Culture enables both connection and disconnection with technology.

The document discusses popular culture, including what it is, how it is determined and influenced, its broad appeal and changing nature, whether it is superficial or serious, and how it can provide insights into society. Popular culture refers to everyday cultural interactions, needs and desires that are spread through mass media industries. While some see it as superficial, others argue it reflects emerging cultural trends. Studying popular culture can provide understanding of social issues around topics like race, gender, and sexuality within historical and current contexts.

This document is an undergraduate honors thesis submitted by Cecelia Monroe exploring issues of creative control, identity, and systems of oppression within classical music. The thesis describes how classical music is founded on structures of white supremacy, patriarchy, and other oppressive systems that constrain artists. It discusses Monroe's experience in the Portland State University music program and a desire for more critical examination of these issues. The recital "Seeking Creative Control" and accompanying thesis were created by Monroe to address these topics through her own music and artwork by Victoria Gallegos. The performance featured several guest artists and was intended to incorporate Monroe's passions for social justice and representation within the technical skills of her cello performance.
The student planned and currently runs a student music outreach program at an assisted living facility.

The program connects elderly and student musician communities, with the student finding adaptability an important leadership skill. Performances are provided a few times a year.

There is no avoiding it: the library landscape has been changing. We are dealing with slashed budgets and insufficient staffing while attempting to meet an increased need for innovative library programming. As librarians from small libraries, we may be reluctant to shake things up with new ideas because of the high price of failure. So how do we stay relevant in the 21st century? This presentation is a how-to guide for utilizing local resources, establishing valuable community partnerships, and decreasing costs while increasing participation in fresh, fearless, and affordable library programming.
