1. What does it mean to be an artist-citizen?
2. How can music be used to engage those who might feel marginalized within a particular community, and how might marginalized groups use music to give themselves a voice?
3. What can we do as artists to improve the world?
4. How can we position ourselves to be the most useful and how can we give our students the skills they need to be effective artist-citizens?
