Art of the Lived Experiment (ALE), an exhibition that received funding from the National Endowment for the Arts, addresses the idea that art and life are in a state of continual change and uncertainty. The exhibition’s starting point is the practice of alchemy, taking its magical, transformative, and experimental associations as a template with which to consider the work of a range of international contemporary artists. ALE premiered at DaDaFest International 2014 in Liverpool, England, and recently made its inaugural and only U.S. appearance in Grand Rapids, MI. Works by twenty-seven U.S.

Sometimes numbers convey meaning better than words.  Learn what you can and should quantify!   Numbers have meaning when they relate to a clear theory of action and when they can be compared to something else. This webinar features the story of Detroit's Mosaic Youth Theatre and a study by the University of Michigan that assessed the effects of Mosaic's model for positive youth development, including individual and social outcomes such as community involvement and increased social capital.
