CONCLUSION ......................................................................................... 773 I. INTRODUCTION The common law lives on analogy—its power to change depends on whether the creative new things individuals do every day that get them into trouble can be correctly assimilated to conduct that has previously been ruled legal or illegal, determined to be the subject of damages, or protected as part of individual liberty. We might find this dilemma captured in the famous Sesame Street ditty that goes, “One of these things is not like the others, one of these things just doesn’t belong . .”1 Since the Supreme Court’s development of ever-more nuanced versions of the public forum doctrine, starting with cases such as Perry Education Association v. Perry Local Educators’ Association,2 among other refinements of its Speech Clause jurisprudence,3 much free speech jurisprudence has taken on a common law caste, one analogy after another. Because the Supreme Court has provided more robust protection for free speech rights in “public forums,” like streets, parks, and sidewalks, the courts must parse possible analogies to determine whether a sidewalk leading up to a * Professor of Law, Hamline University School of Law. 1 JOE RAPOSO & JON STONE, ONE OF THESE THINGS (IS NOT LIKE THE OTHERS) (Columbia 1970), available at http://members.tripod.com/tiny_dancer/one.html.

Thanks to the JCCE for creating a fantastic opportunity for any artist focused on public engagement and beautification! As a resident of Ventura County, I have long had a relationship with Santa Barbara regarding art and local history. I have been a 21 year contributor to the I Madonnari Festival at the Old Mission, creating large scale ephemeral pastel murals for the public. This festival gave me my 'start' in public philanthropic works, which I carried onwards as my career of choice. Prior to the discovery of street painting I enjoyed a career in mural painting, creating original works in a variety of painting traditions for large hospitality and commercial properties. I continue to work in this capacity on select projects. My husband Sayak Mitra is an art practitioner from Kolkata, India, who has relocated to Ventura, in hopes of expanding his art career while making a new life here in the US. A gifted designer /artist, he has shown his work throughout India and is a regular contributor to the Kolkata art community.

Social media has allowed art movements to develop and increase public awareness, access, and participation with the arts. This paper summarizes three art movements and five arts programs and their presence in the southeastern United States. I aim to encourage the reader to participate in the arts in their communities by explaining current art movements and emerging non-profit arts organizations in the Southeastern United States. Keywords: Accessibility, social media, street art, nonprofit organizations Ubiquity: The Journal of Literature, Literacy, and the Arts, Praxis Strand, Vol.1 No.1, Winter 2014 19 Bush ACCESSIBILITY AND THE ARTS Accessibility and the Arts in the 21st Century: Samples from the Southeast The arts have dramatically changed in the past few decades, partly due to emerging technologies. The Internet has made the visual arts easily accessible, giving way to trends like visual culture in the art classroom. These emerging technologies are inclusive: they are utilized by all ages. Jenkins (2009) calls this a participatory culture, one that has “relatively low barriers to artistic expression and civic engagement, strong support for creating and sharing creations, and […] participants pass along knowledge to novices” (p.

  • I'm So Excited for Today's Episode with Denise Kowal. When We Met for The
    Back to the Drawing Board Podcast Upsetting the Festival Status Quo, Pushing the Comfort Zone with Denise Kowal Emilija: I’m so excited for today’s episode with Denise Kowal. When we met for the first time in Florida last year she gave me a big hug and I actually still remember that. And I had never talked to her before. Anyways, Denise is the founder of the Sarasota International Chalk Festival in Florida and she has been an integral part of bringing artists from all around the world to invigorate the city since 2007. I was able to participate last year in my first ever chalk festival. I wanted to bring Denise on the podcast to talk about her motivation behind creating the festival and its power to alter the paradigm in fine art. D: Thank you for having me. E: Just last week or two weeks ago, I had a chat with Shawn McCann. I’m pretty sure you know him. D: Absolutely. E: We talked a little bit about chalk art and his work with Driscoll’s berry company. But we didn’t really touch on the history of chalk art. So I was hoping you could cover a little bit of that. D: I can certainly speak to what I’ve learned over the past 10 or 11 years that I’ve been in it. E: It’s a test. D: One thing that I know as I get older, is that the more you learn the less you seem to know. I also can only speak to what I know, I think one’s knowledge of history should only pop in.

  • Emilija: Today on the Podcast I Will Be Talking to My Friend Shawn Mccann, Who I Met at the Sarasota Chalk Festival in Florida Last Year
    Back to the Drawing Board Podcast Episode 005: Handmade Work and the Power of Experience with Shawn McCann Emilija: Today on the podcast I will be talking to my friend Shawn McCann, who I met at the Sarasota Chalk Festival in Florida last year. He is an artist that creates street artwork, chalk artwork, murals, fine art, children’s book illustrations and commercial installations. He truly does it all. I think you even have on your website, I saw, you teach art, is that correct? Shawn: Yeah. I do some workshops with students. Actually, at the beginning of this week I was doing some chalk workshops with some students in North Dakota, but unfortunately, we got rained out yesterday, so. I try and visit the schools as much as I can and get the next generation of artists excited about creating some work. E: Awesome. So, you do do it all. Shawn also travels around the US and internationally to participate in festivals and create art. I was specifically interested in having him on the podcast to talk about the way companies are using local artists to brand and market themselves and the rising value of handmade work. When we met last year I was surprised, you know that was the first time I attended a chalk festival, and I was so surprised that there was a whole group of artists that do that for a living. You just travel around to different places and make art. So, I want to start by asking how does one go about becoming a travelling chalk artist? S: Well you had the same experience I had about 12 years ago, because living up near, living up in Minnesota, near the Canadian border, I didn’t know there was a whole another group of people out there as well.

    Pavement Art and its Raison d’Etre in Contemporary Fine Art By Lori Escalera, BA, Art1 – abridged version 7.17.18 Historical events and current phenomena are the Raison d’Etre for Pavement Arts. Artists find supreme Artistic expression creating tremendous visual works of beauty, message, and skill uniquely on the pavement (fig 1). In asking the questions: Why does Pavement Art exist? Is Pavement Art relevant to serious Artmaking? Is Pavement Art validated by a shift towards ephemerality in Art? We find the answers looking at the emergent growth of Pavement Art; in understanding why Artists find pavement a sanctified place for creating Representational Figurative Art; and can then build a case for Pavement Art’s inclusion in Art History canon. As resources are more precious and humans are showing the effects of that scarcity, we see a popular trend towards Figure 1 American Artist Rod Tryon, Peacock, 2008, Bella ephemerality.

In the proliferation of Pavement Artists, festivals, commercial work and Pavement Art opportunities, we can find a covalent system of global Artists who work in impressive ways. Working with diverse materials, at different levels of ephemerality, and under a variety of ethos, Pavement Artists have successfully bridged the divide of nationalism as a global force.2 They are an inclusive bunch, often referring to themselves as a “family of street painters.” An alternate reality lay in the shadows until a watershed moment arose for Pavement Arts.
