Justin Driver, author of "The Schoolhouse Gate: Public Education, the Supreme Court, and the Battle for the American Mind" is an award-winning Robert R. Slaughter Professor of Law at Yale. Driver maintains that since the 1970s, the Supreme Court has regularly abdicated responsibility in protecting students' rights, risking transforming public schools into Constitution-free zones and in turn, jeopardizing our basic constitutional order. It begs us to ask how American public schools have become hotbeds for cultural anxieties and national identity. rnrnThis forum is part of Authors in Conversation series sponsored by The John P.

Jeremy Johnson is a Cleveland native who recently returned to his hometown to lead the newly formed Assembly for the Arts. Assembly for the Arts is the result of more than a year of planning by Cuyahoga Arts & Culture, Arts Cleveland, and the Arts and Culture Action Committee, with support from the Cleveland Foundation and the George Gund Foundation. The group has said their goal was the create an organization "that would serve the entire creative sector: artists, nonprofits and creative businesses." We welcome Jeremy to discuss his role and the progress made thus far after officially embarking on this new effort just over three months ago.

We all benefit when everyone has the opportunity to pursue their educational dreams, and education is often called the great equalizer. However, it can be argued that the current system stacks the deck in favor of advantaged students. At the same time, government funding for public colleges and universities is flat or falling, and public funding for need-based aid in states like Ohio remains inadequate. Anthony P. Carnevale, of Georgetown University and Victoria Jackson, of the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, explain how to create equitable access to higher education, especially through the COVID-19 crisis.rnThis forum is part of our Authors in Conversation Series sponsored by the John P.

In researching the proposed quarter-cent sales tax increase to stabilize the arts and cultural sector, the Arts & Science Council looked at similar municipalities to learn from what did or did not work in the past. That research lead them to Cuyahoga County, OH, or the greater Cleveland area. In 2006, Cuyahoga Co. voted to fund their arts and cultural sector through a 30 cent per pack tax on cigarettes. The tax was renewed in 2015 with a near unanimous 85-15 vote.  In this episode of the Culture For All Podcast, host Andy Goh talks to arts leaders in Cuyahoga Co. to learn from their experience using public funds. You'll hear from Jill Paulsen, the President and CEO of Cuyahoga Arts and Culture; Megan Van Voorhis, President of Arts Cleveland, twenty-year city councilman Matt Zone, and several others.

Today, my guests are Amanda Nyx, a painter, teacher, and installation artist, along with former guest of the show, musician Michael McFarland. I’m such a huge fan of the work Amanda and Michael do in the Cleveland area, especially their work on the McFarland Manor shows, so I wanted to have them on to help spread the word about their new project for Ingenuity Cleveland, entitled “Zen Soundscapes” In our chat, we go over the purpose of Ingenuity Cleveland and how getting involved with that space took Amanda and Michael in new directions as artists. Amanda goes deep on the history and purpose of zen gardens, and Michael explains how their project will be taking the traditional zen garden and enhancing it with technology. Most importantly, the reason I recorded and am releasing this today is to help Amanda and MIchael spread the word about their fundraiser for this project. All donations made before August 1st will be 100% matched by Cuyahoga Arts & Culture Match Fund through a partnership with a new crowdfunding platform, ioby, which worked with Michael and Amanda to secure these matching funds.
