BuildaBridge Institute 2008
Transforming Lives through the Creative Arts
Bryn Mawr College - Bryn Mawr, PA
June 4-8, 2008 (Open Institute)
June 4-11, 2008 (MA Graduate Residency)
BuildaBridge Institute is a training and applied research academy that prepares artists, youth workers, community and congregational leaders, social service professionals, after school and nonprofit organization personnel to integrate the arts effectively in education and community development.
This year, for the first time, the BuildaBridge Institute will feature two simultaneous tracks. This means that returning participants will have new course offerings in the theory and practice of arts in transformation. We are also adding new faculty from a variety of arts-integrated fields in education, social work, and healing.
Courses will include Foundations for Arts in Transformation, Arts and Human Development, Arts in Education, Arts in Healing (New), Arts in Social Services (New), Arts and Spirituality and Leadership Practicum (New). Art-making takes place through classes in music, dance, drama, visual arts, banner-making, and creative writing. We will also have our very popular and unique Methods Lab Practicum where students and participants observe and assist a lead teacher in a direct arts service program with youth in a local homeless shelter. Participants can also attend courses in Cross-Cultural Skills for Community and Overseas Service (New), and Organization for Community Arts featuring collaborative work and fund-raising. The Healing Place, a drama-based training program for responding to trauma in children, will also be introduced.
Act-48, undergraduate and graduate credit is available through Eastern University.
Class size is limited. Reserve your space in advance. Full registration, which includes all course work, textbooks and supplies, is $450 for early applicants (by February 22) and $500 for late applicants (by May 20). An additional $250 covers 4 nights of room and board at Bryn Mawr College (overnight accommodation, 3 meals/day). A single day rate of $150 includes registration and 2 meals. Full Institute commuters can pay $113 for all meals (commuter meals include lunches and dinners from Wednesday to Saturday and lunch on Sunday).

Comments of previous attendees
"The most exciting experience I had at the BuildaBridge Institute was coming together with other artists and learning from them how to use different art forms to impact children in life-changing ways."
(2007 Alumna)
"Now I can understand the ability of the arts to transform lives, to raise the quality of life in communities, to build self-esteem.
____________
Now in its seventh year, the BuildaBridge Institute has attracted more than 250 professionals worldwide. Both experts and novices come together to network, collaborate, and learn how to engage the arts in community outreach and to serve vulnerable populations through
effective practices.
Since 2007, the Institute has partnered with the Campolo School for Social Change at Eastern University to offer a Master of Arts in Urban Studies with a concentration in Arts in Transformation.
