Cultural Competency Workshop

This class is for City of Baltimore managers/supervisors only.

Cultural competence begins with the recognition that we are all born, raised and living in social, educational and organizational cultures. These cultures shape our assumptions, beliefs, values and behaviors. When we interact with others, the similarities and differences between our cultural expectations often make the interaction both more interesting, and more challenging. 

A person who is culturally competent can communicate sensitively and effectively with people who have different languages, cultures, religions, genders, ethnicities, disabilities, ages and sexualities. The goal of this workshop is for participants to develop cultural competence, resulting in their ability to understand, communicate with, and effectively interact with all people. Develop awareness, increase knowledge, and build skills which will lead to cultural competence empowerment.

Learning Objectives:  Upon completion of this course, participants will:

• The difference and relationship between culture and diversity

The free Lunchtime Lecture Series explores how local firms, design practitioners, and allied organizations are putting the big ideas of the Spring Lecture Series into practice.

1 AIA/CES LU available

Design trends in site and landscape planning have embraced more holistic approaches to creating functional ecological systems, notably with a focus on water. Environmental design guidelings such as the Sustainable Sites Initiative and LEED are fundamentally changing the way designers and developers are building the landscape. Integral to implementing those concepts, many jurisdictions now mandate more stringent stormwater management practices in site design in order to protect local waters.

This lunchtime lecture explores how ecology and nature’s processes are influencing current trends in landscape planning and design, and how the landscape aesthetic is changing to functionally accommodate more robust ecological needs centered around water. Scott C. Scarfone, ASLA, PLA, of Kimley-Horn, will present an overview of some of these concepts and illustrate them through his recent work, such as plans for the Wilmington Wetland Park, and share ideas about what the new landscape aesthetic might look like in the future.

Team Chartering: What Is It and Why Do It?

 Short Summary: How many times have you worked with a team or in a partnership and realized only in retrospect all the ways you might have reached better outcomes? What might your experience have been like if you had taken the time to do some more planning up front?

 What are the best experiences you have had in teams or groups and what are the most difficult? In thinking through the differences, how much more mission and role clarity was there on the successful teams? How did communication style differ and how did this comfort develop?

 This session will offer a stellar tool for team development called a team charter. Team Chartering is an iterative process that can be used in any setting with teams of 2 to 100 +

Using this tool, you will sort through team mission and vision, communication and conflict styles, strengths and areas and growth, roles, feedback and more to create conditions for best individual and team outcome.

 Session Objectives:

 -Discuss and understand benefits of team chartering

-Learn how to discuss this process with your team in advance

-Practice chartering

-Leave with a tool to clarify and strengthen team goals, roles, processes and interpersonal relationship

*Content- specific facilitation will be tailored to suit audience and presentation length to maximize learning and engagement

Amy Bernstein, Grantwriting Strategist, Intellectual Warehouse

The grant narrative is the heart and soul of any strong proposal. This is your opportunity to get a potential funder excited about your project. The narrative must convey a clear vision for the project, make a compelling case for why it is needed, and provide just enough detail and context to persuade a funder that you are competent to execute the project. This is a challenging strategic writing exercise, often made even more challenging by the word limits many grant forms impose. In this session, we’ll break down the components of a successful grant narrative, review tips and techniques for clear and compelling writing, and give you the opportunity to draft at least a portion of a strong narrative yourself. We’ll also discuss pitfalls to avoid. You will leave this session with a good grasp of what it takes to write a strong grant narrative.

To better understand the state of democracy today, the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Agora Institute at Johns Hopkins University is launching Democracy Dialogues, a new, ongoing series of conversations with JHU President Ron Daniels and a diverse group of scholars, policymakers, journalists, citizens and practitioners.  

The first conversation will address the complex relationship between technology and democracy with Zeynep Tufekci and Alec Ross, both of whom have been at the forefront of this issue. 

Zeynep Tufekci, professor, columnist and author of Twitter and Tear Gas: The Power and Fragility of Networked Protest (Yale University Press, 2017), was an early and outspoken critic of social media’s potential to damage democracy. Her ongoing research revolves around the interaction between society and technology, with a focus on how big data, algorithms and artificial intelligence are affecting not only the dynamics of power and resistance in modern society but the social and political structures that uphold it.

Alec Ross is an innovator, investor, former gubernatorial candidate and state department official, and the author of The Industries of the Future (Simon & Schuster, 2016). In his role as Senior Advisor for Innovation to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, he saw firsthand technology’s power to protect democracy. He also knows that, left unchecked, it is no panacea. Currently, Ross serves as an adviser on technology and geopolitics to political and business leaders around the world.

This lively conversation, moderated by President Daniels, will include an opportunity for audience members to engage with the panelists on the role of technology in our democracy.

A book signing will follow the discussion. The Ivy Bookshop will be onsite and have books by both panelists available for purchase.

Panel Starts: 7 PM (Theater Doors Open: 6:30)
Reception in Showroom Bar: 8 - 9:30

Connect + Collect is a new initiative brought to you by BmoreArt's Cara Ober and Jeffrey Kent, designed to create awareness and momentum among new and experienced collectors, and to promote a culture of collecting in Baltimore.

Our third panel features Doreen Bolger, former director of The Baltimore Museum of Art and a serious collector of Baltimore-based art, with Taha Heydari, an Iranian-born painter and MICA graduate living in Baltimore. Topics to be discussed include ethical relationships between artists, collectors, and galleries; strategies for exhibiting across the country and internationally; collecting at Baltimore-based art auctions and municipal galleries; and the great importance of showing up.

We welcome artists to this conversation who want to strengthen relationships with collectors, as well as those who want to build private and public collections, including curators, collectors, gallerists, and art professionals.

Our panel will be followed by a reception in The Showroom and each ticket includes an adult beverage at the bar.
