You will be required to attend and write short responses to five (5) events related to art, Asia, or religion (exhibitions, speakers, films, performances, readings, etc.) before the end of the term. Any art exhibition will count. I will announce other related events as I become aware of them (in class, on Canvas, and at Related events), and you should do the same. Be sure to check in advance that an event is pertinent to ARTH 253 before you choose to write about it.

Response papers should be approximately 300 words in length. They are due within one week of the event and should include a response to one of the following questions (choose whichever seems most appropriate to you):

• How did this event expand your knowledge of art? Please share one or two insights.
• How did this event expand your knowledge of Asia? Please share one or two insights.
• How did this event expand your understanding of religion or religious practice? Please share one or two insights.
• What questions did this event raise for you?

Please consult the Format for Written Work on your syllabus before writing and submitting.

Alternatively, you may substitute a meeting with me or with Writing Fellows at the Center for Teaching and Learning about your research project for any of the events, in which case you will be excused from a response paper.
