Sociocultural And Collaborative Antagonism In The Harold Prince-Stephen Sondheim Musicals (1970-1979), Ashley Marian Pribyl

Art History Pedagogy & Practice

This article outlines a collaborative, community-based project developed for two undergraduate art history courses at a large state university.
