The Neighborhood Writing Alliance Today CAN brings you a new essay by the artists of the Neighborhood Writing Alliance in Chicago. “Sharing Space: Collaborative Programming Within and Between Communities” by Mairead Case, Annie Knepler and Rupal Soni explores the ways this small nonprofit community writing program partners with larger organizations to “provoke dialogue and promote change by creating opportunities for adults in Chicago to write, publish and perform works about their lives.”
The Neighborhood Writing Alliance Today CAN brings you a new essay by the artists of the Neighborhood Writing Alliance in Chicago. “Sharing Space: Collaborative Programming Within and Between Communities” by Mairead Case, Annie Knepler and Rupal Soni explores the ways this small nonprofit community writing program partners with larger organizations to “provoke dialogue and promote change by creating opportunities for adults in Chicago to write, publish and perform works about their lives.” Much of the writing generated by the program is published in the organization’s Journal of Ordinary Thought. In this essay on CAN, they write about partnering with the Public Square at the Illinois Humanities Council and ten other organizations on events around community and public health. Another project paired NWA writers with a production of Ifa Bayeza’s “The Ballad of Emmett Till” at the Goodman Theatre in Chicago in 2008. This essay is part of Community Arts Perspectives, a publication of the Community Arts Convening and Research Project, Vol. II, Issue 3.
