During this meeting, we will work towards imagining a double practice as both institution-builders and art practitioners. Activities will span mind-mapping, mantra-writing, and small group discussions.
This session of Artist/Admin, facilitated by Natalia Nakazawa, together with Sheetal Prajapati, is intended primarily for administrators in arts organizations who also are pursuing an independent artistic practice, but is also suited for people who are simply interested in both administrative work as well as artistic creativity. We will discuss the many ways these two practices can be fused or separated, both from a practical and philosophical perspective. 
Artist/Admin is a monthly meeting of artists and administrators to discuss + create new forms of the cultural institution. Readings and/or viewings will be circulated beforehand.
Natalia Nakazawa is an artist, educator, and arts administrator. She is currently the Assistant Director of EFA Studios, a program of The Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts, which provides subsidized studio space to over 100 artists in midtown Manhattan. Additionally, she implements educational programming and young artist mentorship for NYC public school students through the Museum of Arts and Design. 
Sheetal Prajapati is Brooklyn-based artist and educator. Her work explores the possibilities for public engagement that emerge from collaboration, experimentation, and interdisciplinary practice. She held programming positions at The Museum of Modern Art (New York) and Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago and co-organized the Open Engagement conference from 2014-2016. Sheetal is currently co-curator of GAME NIGHT, an event series presenting artist-made games for play, a 2017 Artist and Community Council member for The Laundromat Project, and adjunct faculty at Moore College of Art and Design. She received her BA from Northwestern University and her MA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. 
This event is a public program as part of "The Visible Hand," an exhibition on art and managerialism at CUE Art Foundation, open until February 15.
