The Lab In Sandy Utah To Provide Collaboration And Co-working Space For Social Entrepreneurs
Heidi Twitchell is part of a team of local people organizing a collaboration space in Sandy, Utah that will be called The Lab.
Heidi introduced the space to me this way, “ We’re turning his warehouse in Sandy into a hub of artistic expression, social entrepreneurship, innovative learning, global collaboration and sustainable solutions through the arts, sciences & technology.”
On Thursday, November 14, 2013 at 4:00 Eastern, Heidi will join me for a live discussion about the launch of The Lab.
Here’s a bit more about Heidi from her Linkedin profile:
I started off my life as a professional television and film actress. After over ten years, I shifted focus to my education and then to my ten-year teaching career. In 2011, I left the classroom to dedicate my time and resources to the betterment of education.
Teaching students through the visual and performing arts is the (proven) most effective approach to teaching and learning available today. Comprehensive arts programs involve the integration of visual and performing arts into curricular instruction, artist in residencies and experiences in the arts outside of school. The social, emotional and academic benefits of such programs are powerful and too many to list- yet still the arts are undervalued and sparsely existent in schools.
