Springboard for the Arts
A compilation of insights, practices, and tools from our collective experiences as artists, as an organization working with hundreds of artists in communities, and from a few of the artist practitioners whom we admire. This is a practical manual for individual artists who would like to begin or deepen this kind of artistic practice – work in and work with community.
Artists At Risk Connection (a project of PEN America)

Tips and strategies were drawn from testimony of artists who have faced persecution as well as the research and expertise of ARC’s network.
