Fellowship Workshops are designed for applicants to our ABOG Fellowship for Socially Engaged Art and include hands-on, interactive approaches to helping artists with their proposals. This workshop will begin with a short presentation by ABOG Fellows Norene Leddy and Liz Slagus, followed by small group discussions about what ABOG’s selection criteria are and how artists can best apply them, each led by an ABOG staffer. ABOG will also facilitate a review process for artists to receive feedback from their peers in advance of submitting their applications.
About Norene Leddy and Liz Slagus
ABOG Fellows Norene Leddy and Liz Slagus have been collaborators since 2008 focusing on developing radical pedagogies that combine art, reproductive health, and participatory tools. Their collaborative project, SexEd, will initiate an artist residency at the school-based health center and develop an arts-based sexual health curriculum at Washington Irving High School Campus in New York City during the 2014-15 school year. SexEd will focus on key themes identified by students, teachers and health center staff on campus including HIV/AIDS, gender, healthy relationships, pleasure, and consent.
