Chinati Foundation - Community

Community

The Chinati Foundation sponsors art and education programs, establishing close links to the local community and other cultural institutions and universities in the United States and abroad. Started by Judd, Chinati's Artists in Residence Program provides artists from around the world an opportunity to develop and exhibit their work in a stimulating environment. Chinati's Internship Program offers students from a variety of disciplines hands-on museum experience. Each summer the museum hosts art classes for local students. Chinati has been producing an annual newsletter in English and Spanish since 1995 (some of the backnumbers are available at the Chinati bookstore).

Famous quotes containing the word community:

    “Every community is an association of some kind and every community is established with a view to some good; for everyone always acts in order to obtain that which they think good. But, if all communities aim at some good, the state or political community, which is the highest of all, and which embraces all the rest, aims at good in a greater degree than any other, and at the highest good.”
    —Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)

    “The community which has neither poverty nor riches will always have the noblest principles.”
    —Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)

    “Education is for improving the lives of others and for leaving your community and world better than you found it.”
    —Marian Wright Edelman (20th century)
