Inside Community is an interdisciplinary project undertaken by visual journalism and visual art students at Boston University. Students are tasked with defining community to understand its boundaries, priorities and values, and to use an insider’s position to reflect on the community. This panel discussion will guide students working on the Inside Community project with a practical discussion on the importance of connecting with a community to form a visual perspective. Our panelists will explore how they are able to form a deep connection with a community. The event is also open to the general public.
