Happy Anniversary 20UNDER40

Posted in Uncategorized by edwardpclapp on December 10, 2011

A year ago today 20UNDER40: Re-Inventing the Arts and Arts Education celebrated the launch of its publication in the Boston area, and then three days later in New York before the publication took off on a West Coast tour. In the past year 20UNDER40 has been widely reviewed, discussed in national forums, and featured on a variety of course syllabi across the United States. As the anthology celebrates its one year anniversary, I’m curious to know—what’s your 20UNDER40 story? How have chapters in the book changed your thinking? What changes in the field have you seen as a result of the book’s release? What new conversations have been spawned by the publication, its authors, and its ideas?
