Meeting Musings

30 jan 2013

After sharing my idea of community-sustainable sets with Lisa at my meeting today, she and I had a jam session about how that could grow and develop into a multi-year massive project that encompasses youth and community action both nationally and internationally.

DreamBig Timeline We Discussed
-Put Franceypants things on the backburner
-Research Braddock, PA
-Contact John Fetterman
-Research this summer or volunteer work in Braddock
-Brackenridge Scholarship for Junior Year, re: how to create sustainable communities through art
-Start BPhil spring of Junior Year: DOING things!
-Apply for Fullbright for post-grad, continuing my sustainable communies through art project, but researching how to accomplish it abroad!

Then, naturally, I would aspire to get this movement viral and maybe a couple of lives would be bettered by it.
