Internship: Networking 3

I recently stumbled upon an online webinar networking event titled “Forging meaningful community collaborations through public art” hosted by Kristi Oliver of the website Davis. This was very much a presentation and panel style webinar. The host would regulate all comments and questions. During this webinar there were 3 speakers Alice Mizrachi, Lady Pink, Janette Beckman who spoke about their communities and integrating art that represents not only where they’re from but the culture of the people. As for attendees and connecting with one another, there wasn’t an attendee counter or the ability to connect to others. It was very much regulated only for the speaker to present. My take away and what i’ve learned from this webinar was that people within ethnic communities such as hispanic and asian look up to and resonate with those who are representing of them within the various aspects of media.
