Abstract
This thesis documents the objectives of my research and curatorial projects exploring the relationship of contemporary art to social change. It describes the concepts and programmatic model of Provisions Library, a resource center on Arts and Social Change, of which I am the founding director; it documents recent curatorial projects including exhibitions, public art, and community engagement that have taken place during my graduate studies; and, finally, it outlines programmatic concepts and curatorial programs that would leverage visual arts as a signature learning model at George Mason University in the future.
