April 7, 2014 (San José, CA)—MACLA/Movimiento de Arte y Cultura Latino Americana is proud to launch its first Community-Sponsored Art (CSA) program on April 7, 2014. MACLA’s CSA program supports Latino artists by helping them to create and distribute their artwork through new channels. Concurrently, this program gives first-time and experienced art collectors the opportunity to own regionally made, limited-edition art. Through an open call and a juried selection process artists were chosen to create “shares.” A typical “share” consists of a work of art, usually a multiple or limited edition. This year’s artists are Melanie Cervantes, Jamil Hellu, Juan Luna-Avin, Favianna Rodriguez, Cristina Velazquez, and Rio Yañez. The selected artists receive a stipend, connections to local collectors, and promotional support. Collectors purchase a CSA “box” (similar to a membership subscription) for $350 that includes six regionally produced artworks. The boxes will be made available at a “pick-up party” on August 1, 2014, featuring food and entertainment. CSA artists participate in an exciting new model of creation and distribution, avail of MACLA’s connections to collectors, art patrons and other artists, and benefit from MACLA’s promotional and distribution capacity.

  • HKS Journal of Hispanic Policy
    HARVARD JOURNAL OF HISPANIC POLICY Volume 26, 2013–2014 An HKS Student Publication www.harvardhispanic.org Twitter: @HarvardHispanic Cover Art: 22% of deportees have U.S. Citizen Children Description: The piece depicts a mother and child separated from a father. The father is depicted as an alien, alluding to the way in which inhumane immigration policy dehumanizes people. Using words like “illegal” and “alien”, all words used by the Department of Homeland Security, criminalizes migrants and sets the stage for anti-migrant hate. About the Artist: Favianna Rodriguez is a celebrated printmaker and digital artist based in Oakland, California. Using high-contrast colors and vivid figures, her composites reflect literal and imaginative migration, global community, and interdependence. Whether her subjects are immigrant day laborers in the U.S., mothers of disappeared women in Juarez, Mexico, or her own abstract self portraits, Rodriguez brings new audiences into the art world by refocusing the cultural lens. Through her work we witness the changing U.S. metropolis and a new diaspora in the arts. Printed on responsibly harvested, agency-certified paper containing 50% post- consumer recycle content.

Photo Alan of Dan Burger Artist Courtesy Flows.” “Temescal Lessons from an Experiment in Art, Environment and Philanthropy in California’s East Bay Maribel L. Alvarez, Ph.D. “Temescal Flows.” Artist Alan Leon. 2011. Photo Courtesy of Dan Burger Dear Reader, The Open Circle Foundation has been both a joy and an education for me. I have not made this journey alone and I want to thank our current and past board members for their insights and willingness to step out of the normal box for grantmaking. In addition, I want to thank the East Bay Community Foundation for providing me with a philanthropic vehicle that worked seamlessly with my intentions in supporting the arts. The staff of EBCF who served on the board over the years brought an important level of expertise to our work. My interactions with all levels of EBCF staff made me feel like a member of a team, not just a “donor.” I’m especially indebted to Dr. Maribel L. Alvarez, who quickly understood what we had been trying to accomplish and what made our approach “different,” and then crafted a beautiful and insightful account of our work. I hope that this monograph inspires you to set your own course in supporting the arts. All the best, Dorothy Claire Weicker tABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION: 5 Rethinking the Bottom Line TIMING IS EVERYTHING: 7 The Grantee’s Point of View WHAT WOULD YOU DO 10 with a Million Dollars?
