The Dashew Center launched the Art & Writing Collective earlier this quarter. We meet every other Wednesday in the Dashew Center lobby. Each time we meet we do a creative warm-up activity and include time for students to work on their individual creative projects, collaborate, and spend time with each other. We’ve also done student-led group activities such as printmaking. Our hope is that this ongoing drop-in space will help international students explore their creative side and meet new people.
By the end of Spring Quarter, we have an additional goal of designing an online international art & writing magazine (similar to UCLA Beat).
Our Call for Entries form is now live!: https://tinyurl.com/dashew-art-writing-submission.
Submissions can be from anyone who identifies with the UCLA international community and can be anything visual art or creative writing. Deadline is March 22nd, 2019.
