DOWNLOAD PROJECT POSTER: Letter in a Boat

POLL: NEWS 8 (WGAL) Poll: "Is it Art?"

This ambitious media and visual arts project, funded by the Pleet Initiative for undergraduate research, aims to complete three public art and media projects in three different communities.  The three communities include the LVC campus community, the local Annville community and the urban Harrisburg community. Dr. Grant Taylor, as Project Director, has formed a “creative collaborative group” (or CCG) with six committed art, film and design students (see below). Together the group will move through a process of experimentation, conception, and production of three public art projects that are both “sustainable” and “site specific”. The creative group will also engage in the exploration and analysis of current environmental issues facing each community. This research will inform and shape each project. Because the projects are being driven by sustainable practices, the group will produce three temporary structures that will be assembled and disassembled without any substantial impact on the natural environment. Each project will employ diverse media, from reusable natural material to new media technologies, such as video projection and multi-media. To facilitate the potential for wider global connections and information exchange, the group has formed a social network on sustainability and the arts.
