And a bit of background: I lead one of the four “Clusters of Scholarly Prominence” mentioned in the ad, which is focused on community-engaged arts as a method for social wellness. It would be very exciting to have a colleague in our network in this new Directorship position!
Best wishes,
Andrea Charise.
