    This organization offers those with limited mobility the opportunity to move themselves physically - and others emotionally (as well as themselves) - though powerful performances. One of my favorite organizations

Confluence Project - 1 views

  •  
    "Confluence Project is a collaborative effort of Pacific Northwest tribes, renowned artist Maya Lin, civic groups from Washington and Oregon and other artists, architects and landscape designers. The project stretches more than 300 miles from where the Columbia River flows into the Pacific Ocean, to Clarkston, WA, with sites in both Oregon and Washington. Each of its seven sites features an art installation by Ms. Lin that interprets the area's ecology and history, encouraging the visitor to reflect on how the surroundings have changed over time. Each references a passage from the Lewis and Clark journals."

Nike.inc Saving Our Earth - 1 views

    From Nike's project, we can see that even though they have successfully sold their products to people. Nevertheless, when shoes got beat up, people usually just throw it away. Fortunately, Nike has collected shoes for reuse and build couple public facility. This is type of work that working with community and society, which we talked about during the lecture.

    This is really cool considering the PR associated with Nike and their impact economically.

    I love Nike! and you should watch this video too! The video is about how Nike transforms recycled bottles into jerseys. http://globalgrind.com/2012/04/17/nike-lightest-environmentally-friendly-soccer-jerseys-photos/

    I really think this project is awesome. I never thought about recycling worn out dirty shoes, but this is definitely a good idea. My nephew plays soccer and he throws away 2-3 sports shoes every year (which is a lot!!), so I always thought it will be great if there's a way to recycle shoes. I hope more companies or organizations start this kind of projects to save earth.

    I think this is a great idea. I would love to know more about it. There is not much other information about it on the internet besides what is in the video. Does anyone know if Nike donates these courts or fields? That would be a great way to give back to the community.

    I really like this a lot. This is good for Nike public relations wise and it is smart economically as well. Nike being a progressive company is a positive for everyone involved.

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland - 0 views

  •  
    Super bright, feisty eight-year-old Alice Quivery challenges the strictures of Victorian society by happily following a pocket watch-toting White Rabbit down a magical hole into the quirky world of Wonderland. Help Alice as she tromps through a fantastical forest and struggles to grasp nonsensical celebrity Tweets, learn hip hop dance moves, and win a battle of wills with a Hatter who considers Twilight a serious work of nonfiction. Appropriate for all ages, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland powerfully recasts the beloved children's classic by artfully infusing Victorian mores with modern popular culture.
