Abstract
The presenters CBAE practice, theory, and research will be discussed to demonstrate how creative collaboration with multi-generational stakeholders teaches art and leadership skills that empower and transform communities while increasing their interest in and appreciation of art as both a pleasurable activity and means of communicating with others. Through discussion of a CBAE conceptual framework developed and implemented by the presenters and the age-integrated arts learning curriculum theory they developed, this presentation considers how to plan and implement effective CBAE programs. Examples of four CBAE projects will be discussed to demonstrate how to provide all stakeholders with personally meaningful outcomes for themselves and all collaborators involved, find like-minded community partners, successfully develop shared ideas into goals, and effective ways of meeting goals such as: recruiting participants, developing activities, sharing tasks, seeking group consensus in decision making, and the process of envisioning concepts as art products.
