Hi folks – don’t forget that we are NOT meeting in class this Tuesday, June 9th; however, you are still responsible for the readings, which we will discuss on Thursday. So for Thursday, please read the following:
- Introduction and Chapters 1 & 2 from The Cultural Creatives: How 50 Million People are Changing the World (on Blackboard)
- Sections: “The Transformation of Everyday Life,” “The Creative Ethos,” and “The Creative Class” from The Rise of the Creative Class: and How it’s Transforming Work, Leisure, Community and Everyday Life. (Book in bookstore)
Please post your response to the readings by Friday (midnight), June 12th. As discussed in class, you can approach your blog posts any way you’d like, but you must engage with several of the readings/concepts discussed. So feel free to reference personal experiences and/or opinions/thoughts, as long as those comments are backed up or make significant connections to the readings.
