SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=en-us:"Talk: “BED SHOE HOME: Poverty and Homelessness in Champaign-Urbana” by Jane Gilmor"
DESCRIPTION:"\rPart of the CAS/MillerComm Lecture Series\r\rChampaign-Urbana is facing a crisis in housing for low-income families and the under-sheltered. To bring this issue into sharper focus, the University Y’s Art @ the Y program, in collaboration with the School of Art + Design and the School of Social Work, initiated BED SHOE HOME, a community-based art action organized by nationally known artist Jane Gilmor, who has maintained socially engaged art practice since the late 80s. Gilmor was in residence on campus for a month this fall working in community organizations serving the homeless: the Daily Bread Soup Kitchen, Courage Connection, and the Phoenix Center.\r\rThe project helped build a sense of community both within the under-sheltered population and between the university, the larger C-U community and those living on the edges. Gilmor’s work explores identity, dislocation, and border crossings: poverty/privilege, public/private, rural/urban, male/female.\r\rThe CAS/MillerComm public events series brings to campus people who offer unique cross-disciplinary contributions to the intellectual and cultural life of the university.\r\rThis Center for Advanced Study event is hosted by the School of Art + Design, School of Social Work and University YMCA in conjunction with the College of Education, Courage Connection, Daily Bread Soup Kitchen, Department of Gender and Women’s Studies, Department of Sociology, Department of Urban and Regional Planning, Illinois Program for Research in the Humanities, Phoenix Center, and the School of Architecture.\r\rFor further information, visit the Center for Advanced Study at cas.illinois.edu or call (217) 333-6729\r"
