Artist Lily Yeh on Using Art to Transform and Build Community
This week for the Fall 2011 Creativity + Social Change class, we read "Warrior Angel: The Work of Lily Yeh" by Bill Moskin and Jill Jackson, a paper on hartist/activist/educator Lily Yeh's methodology of using art to transform and build community. Below is a presentation by Lily Yeh at the Bioneers conference, where she spoke about and shared examples and pictures of her work. She has a new book out, as well, called Awakening Creativity: Dandelion School Blossoms, which documents her methodology as implemented at the Dandelion School in Beijing, China, a school for the children of migrant workers. I am honored to be interviewing Lily on Creativity in Play at 12 p.m. EDT on Thursday, November 10. Listen live or download the podcast after it airs.

A Tour of 'Creativity and Social Change' in Society ... Sustainability and the Environment
- University of the Trees - a 'kit' that creates an arena for exploring our relationship to the world and for developing actions based on new insights. It is a flexible social sculpture framework in which the trees are our teachers and the ecological crisis is seen as an opportunity for consciousness.
