Welcome, University of Chicago, Open Practice Committee

The University of Chicago has long been at the forefront of research in many disciplines. Working with a talented team at the Department of Visual Arts, the UC Web and IT teams, and our friends at jnl design, we're happy to have launched the Open Practice Committee's new website.

The OPC seeks to explore "the atmospheres and attitudes that make art contemporary." To help fulfill its mission, the site provides event calendaring, video archiving, and blogging on contemporary art events and lectures. The website content is managed with WordPress, using specially-designed templates. The calendaring system is a highly customized implementation of Trumba, a campus-wide sharable calendaring system.

Congratulations to everyone at the Open Practice Committee!
