平特五不中
This five-year funded initiative in the Faculty of Education explores the question: What would it mean to re-imagine a Faculty of Education through the lens of art? The P. Lantz Foundation has several strands, an annual artist-in-residence position, financial support to undergraduate and graduate students, support for music and the arts, and support for art space. The initiative as a whole is meant to foster an understanding of the languages of art, and the ways in which the arts can be integral to building knowledge across disciplines.
The P. Lantz Initiative for Excellence in Education & the Arts includes:
- scholarships for students;
- an artist-in-residence program to ensure professional leadership, expertise, mentoring, and pedagogical collaboration across the Faculty;
- resources to support performance/exhibition spaces that will to ensure the public presentation of student and Faculty-produced arts projects, research, and creative work (visual, music, drama); and
- support for partnerships with local schools in music education
