    Description

    IC205 Experiencing the Arts 3 credits
    Through the use of an interdisciplinary approach, this course explores the ways the arts
    express intellectual, emotional, spiritual, and social concerns. It examines what makes the
    arts an essential part of our human experience and explores the relationships among artists,
    audiences, and the cultural forces that influence both. Students attend performances, exhibitions
    and presentations both on and off campus, study the basic principles and practices
    of the arts and create an interdisciplinary arts project. Prerequisites: completion of
    IC101,IC105, IC106 or permission of Core Curriculum Administrator and sophomore class standing.
    Experiencing the Arts introduces students to a wide variety of cultural activities and events
    as part of the course. Typical among these are:
    Brendan Carey Block, Fiddler
    Iceland Dance
    Bucket and Tap Dance
    Mombasa Party/Drummers of Burundi
    Burlington Taiko Drummers
    Monadnock Musical (Classical)
    Currier Muse
