Arts Communities Drive Manchester Forward

12-03-2025

“We do things differently.” That’s the motto of Manchester, England—and if you’re walking through the city, it doesn’t take long to see that it prides itself on its innovation and creativity. I’ve been fortunate to spend my 20s here, learning from the legacies of changemakers both past and present. So many of the city’s most impactful figures have been—and still are—artists working directly with communities.

Inspired by the people, creatives, and communities around me, I spent the second half of my 13 years in Manchester founding The Untold Orchestra, a “non-classical” collaborative orchestra that centers community engagement. But this piece isn’t about Untold. It’s about an Art City—that is, a place where arts interventions are prioritized and supported by the people who live there, and then rewarded with community, creativity, and positive social change.

Sinfónica Azteca: Empowering Young Musicians Across Mexico, the Americas, and Beyond

10-01-2025

The story of Sinfónica Azteca begins about five years ago, when the world was just beginning to reemerge from the COVID-19 pandemic. Across the globe, music programs and youth orchestras were struggling to survive. The need to restore trust in live music and reignite enthusiasm among young musicians had never been greater.

In Mexico, this posed a double challenge, since we had always lacked a national youth orchestra capable of uniting the country’s young musicians in high-caliber, immersive artistic experiences.

A Space to Be: What One Classroom Taught Me about Art, Listening, and Inclusion

09-03-2025

This was a Mus-e session at a public primary school in Genova, Italy, in a room filled with light, nervous energy and about 20 children in motion. Some moved eagerly. Some hung back. Some followed Olivia Giovannini, the teaching artist leading the session. Others wandered in their own rhythm. Throughout it all, something subtle was happening: no one was being excluded. 

Arts in Action: Case Studies by Global Leaders Institute Fellows

07-09-2025

A shining example of the program’s wide-reaching impact is Arts in Action, an online journal of in-depth case studies crafted by GLI Fellows as a result of their fieldwork collaborations with arts organizations around the world. With over 25 studies addressing both common and unexpected issues facing arts organizations, this collection is a treasure chest of actionable advice for arts practitioners to maximize their social impact. GLI Fellows take care to embed a relationship-oriented approach within their systematic analysis, ensuring that these studies speak with an authentic voice while holding timeless value for readers. Read on to experience the depth and breadth of Arts in Action’s library through three case study examples, which we believe will resonate with our equally diverse Ensemble readership.

En Aotearoa Nueva Zelanda, Kaupapa conduce a la conexión

07-10-2024

Conocía Mixit desde hacía tiempo. Su trabajo no sólo era fascinante desde el punto de vista artístico y pedagógico, sino también inspirador por su longevidad: la organización lleva 19 años ofreciendo oportunidades a jóvenes de diversos orígenes. Aun así, tenía curiosidad por saber más. Como inmigrante, me había dado cuenta de la falta de proyectos en Aotearoa Nueva Zelanda que utilizaran la creatividad y el arte en entornos interculturales y de colaboración, a pesar de la rica población multicultural del país.

Perspectivas cambiantes: Educación musical y discapacidad

04-03-2024

Cuando la gente ve a niños discapacitados participando activamente en actividades musicales, su actitud puede cambiar drásticamente. Este cambio mental es increíblemente beneficioso para estos niños, que prosperan cuando cuentan con el apoyo de personas que creen en sus capacidades. De este modo, los programas musicales son un conector que educa tanto a los niños con discapacidad como a quienes les rodean, que aprenden a celebrar su potencial.
