Divided City Graduate Summer Research Fellows Colloquium

We invite you to listen to a series of brief presentations on the public humanities projects of Divided City Graduate Summer Research Fellows. Projects include partnerships with local organizations, collaborations with international artistic communities, and multimedia responses to urban segregation and other complex social issues. Graduate students in the humanities, humanistic social sciences, architecture and urban design will share about their projects, based in St. Louis and beyond, and the challenges and benefits of pursuing public-facing work beyond their conventional research.

Headline image: During their fellowship, graduate students Kebei Wang and Juana Torralbo launched a new, vibrant community of practice focused on supporting and strengthening German language instruction in the region. They kicked off the effort with a tour of historical sites (such as the sculpture The Naked Truth, pictured here) important to St. Louis’ German immigrants.
