NYU Wagner Review and NYU Arts & Culture Network are collaborating on a call for proposals. NYU graduate students are invited to submit a policy proposal, no more than 2 pages, outlining how the next NYC mayor’s policy agenda can support arts and culture institutions, projects, and programs. Students are invited to consider the following questions: 

• Can participation in the arts and other cultural events help increase civic engagement and dialogue? 
• How should the city reinvigorate arts and culture industries following COVID-19? 
• What policies or best practices should the city/its partner organizations consider in light of the racial equity movement that has gained momentum across the field over the past eighteen months? 
• Consider the intersections between arts & culture and the following: 
  • Community organizing 
  • Social innovation
  • Healthcare 
  • Urban planning 
  • Education 
  • Finance 

Our goal is for participants to produce well-researched, realistic policy recommendations. You may submit your proposal here. We will be accepting proposals on a rolling basis. Students are encouraged to submit here by November 30. Questions? Please email the Wagner Review at Wagner.Review@gmail.com
