SPRING 2010

ACE Projects at Winthrop in partnership with the Arts Council of York County, the Rock Hill Old Town Association and the Cultural and Heritage Commission will bring artist Patrick Dougherty to our community to complete an installation at the new Community Performance Center on Main Street in Rock Hill, South Carolina.
Dougherty was in Rock Hill in June for a site visit and an opportunity to meet stakeholders in the project.

ACE Projects is an outgrowth of the Dalton Downtown Arts Initiative.  One goal of ACE is to expose students to the vital importance of artists' participation in civic engagement at every level.  ACE recognizes that we live in an era of a significant paradigm shift that will impact where we go, how we go, and the quality of where we live.  ACE is taking a step to refocus its goals and activities around the concept of student civic engagement via the arts.  Some of the primary activities of Artists & Civic Engagement Projects (ACE Projects) will include:

  • An emphasis on its significant partnership with Clinton College's Dalton Gallery;

  • Enhanced collaboration with downtown venues;

  • Sponsorship of student artists in the development of community-based projects downtown;

  • Support for significant visiting artists who address the idea of arts and civic engagement;

  • Advocacy for quality public art and design throughout the community; and

  • The introduction of exceptional artists to children through partnerships with local schools.
