Dancers across the world are communicating through movement, style, and sound. Without language, borders, or distance as barriers, a new lifestyle has emerged. Would love to see this in person.

Catch Divisi every Friday performing with On the Rocks and Mind the Gap from 3:45 - 5pm at the EMU Amphitheater! I sung in high school and always thought this form of music was extremely interesting. I saw that On the Rocks was mention and thought the Ladies should be as well!

I have always been a dancer so the art world surrounding dance has always been one of a fascination for me. Oregon Ballet Theatre is really big in Portland where I am from and I grew up attending all of there shows, such as Swan Lake or The Nutcracker. They are preform the rendition of Swan Lake on the 26th of this month and I would highly recommend going!

Here is the website from CNN.com, which provides tons of art works and performance. With these, it may allow us to explore more what we seek to define Art World.

This site is great! Found myself browsing for a while and enjoyed all of the different types of dance and art that it supplied. The range of style and background is entertaining and I was able to use this as inspiration for a possible art world.

This is very useful website to search and find the performances. Yet is it also reports news from a expand world narrative not just a art performance. It is definitely can help me to write the assignment next week to define an art world.

Elizabeth Gilbert muses on the impossible things we expect from artists and geniuses - and shares the radical idea that, instead of the rare person "being" a genius, all of us "have" a genius. It's a funny, personal and surprisingly moving talk.

"The Creative Vitality™ Index (CVI™) is a sophisticated creative-economy measurement tool that arms stakeholders with highly reliable data about an area's creative sectors. The most dynamic creative economy report available today, the CVI™ provides an annual measure of the health and creative vitality of the arts in a specific area. The CVI™ augments the efforts of arts agency leadership and advocates in building strategy and creating policy to strengthen creative sectors or in response to a deficiency. This tool goes far beyond traditional economic impact studies to include annual comparative data about commercial and non-profit creative enterprises and occupations, as well as consumer spending in key creative sectors. As part of WESTAF's commitment to the ongoing enhancement to the CVI™, all CVI™ data will soon be offered in an online format via CVI™ Data on Demand™, a new web tool that allows users to log in and access a variety of reports and combinations of data packaged to your preference--on the fly."

"The fundamental goal of the Urban Institute's Arts and Culture Indicators Project (ACIP) is to help policymakers make better decisions for neighborhoods and cities. To this end, ACIP provides researchers, practitioners, and policymakers with information about the presence and role of arts and culture in communities-how arts and culture affect neighborhood conditions and community dynamics. Specifically, ACIP develops quantifiable measures of arts and culture and integrates them into quality of life measurement systems that can compare conditions across communities and in the same community over time. Launched in the late 1990s with support from the Rockefeller Foundation, ACIP's basic premises are (a) that a healthy place to live includes opportunities for and the presence of arts, culture, and creative expression, (b) that arts, culture, and creative expression are important determinants of how communities fare, and by extension (c) that full understanding of U.S. communities is inherently impossible without including these important perspectives."

"The Works Progress Administration (renamed in 1939 as the Work Projects Administration; WPA) was the largest and most ambitious New Deal agency, employing millions of unemployed people (mostly unskilled men) to carry out public works projects,[1] including the construction of public buildings and roads. In a much smaller but more famous project, the Federal Project Number One, the WPA employed musicians, artists, writers, actors and directors in large arts, drama, media, and literacy projects."

Most of this site is in Spanish but the art is really entertaining. These street art pieces are extremely unique and somewhat comical.

This is a very cool site! Street art is fascinating because of the different views people take towards it. I love the creativity displayed in this websites collection because it invokes so many different perspectives on ordinary things.
