28-5250J Puerto Rico: Arts and Cultural Management

This course allows students to experience and investigate the performing, visual, and festival arts and culture scene in San Juan Puerto Rico. Visits to art galleries, theaters, and the San Sebastian Festival give students the opportunity to observe, research, and reflect upon the various strategies, leadership styles, and cultural policies of our Caribbean neighbors. Visits to other cultural institutions and sites, such as the Puerto Rico Film Commission, will further immerse students in the country’s cultural scene, leading to a deeper understanding of the value of diversity in the arts, entertainment, and media, how business and the arts converge, and the impact on culture both locally and in the United States.
