I am the Rhode Island Arts and Culture Research Fellow. The Fellowship is administered by the Rhode Island Council for the Humanities., an affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities. The Humanities Council seeds, supports, and strengthens public history, cultural heritage, civic education, and community engagement by and for all Rhode Islanders. The mission of the fellowship is to raise public consciousness about arts and culture in Rhode Island.
As the Fellow, I receive support to edit and create Wikipedia articles. While I am making edits for the benefit of arts and culture in Rhode Island, it is an imperative of my project that I follow Wikipedia's 5 Pillars, including that of
NPOV. My project therefore qualifies under the
consultants-for mission-aligned organizations exception to Conflicts of Interest.
The fellowship's directives are to:
deepen public appreciation for the contributions of artists, writers, performers, and cultural leaders connected to Rhode Island;
include diverse identities and experiences;
open history to the next generation of artists, writers, performers, and cultural leaders;
make learning about the RI cultural landscape easy and accessible;
generate new documentation of artists, movements, and significant events that are not currently known or available;
strengthen understanding of the contributions that people make to the state’s cultural richness;
enable practitioners and champions of the state’s creative culture to tell meaningful stories in a variety of contexts and audiences;
make the case for resources and investment in the cultural community of the state;
provide a backdrop or foundation for initiatives and goals for arts and culture in the state.
