AMST 160 - Art and Storytelling

1 unit(s)

(Same as ART 160) Stories and storytelling reside at the heart of human experience; they have the power to shape–and shift–our understandings, actions, and imaginations. How do artists, makers, and other cultural workers draw on the power of storytelling to deepen seeing and knowing and enable emergent stories and realities? Focusing on generative twentieth and twenty-first century creative projects in or in relation to the U.S., this first-year writing seminar–a community of practice and care–explores critical arts and acts of storytelling.

Open only to first-year students; satisfies the college requirement for a First-Year Writing Seminar.

Two 75-minute periods.

Not offered in 2024/25.

Course Format: CLS
