Megan Lovely recently joined the Center for Community Engagement (CCE), moving from Baltimore, MD where she engaged deeply at the nexus of education, community engagement, arts, and nonprofits. She earned her Bachelor’s degree from Denison University in Theatre with a minor in Communication, and her Master of Fine Arts from Towson University in Theatre Arts. Her graduate thesis explored the process of establishing reciprocal relationships with community partners as a social practice artist.
Her continued partnership with the 32nd Street Farmers Market in Baltimore has allowed her to document and promote local stories, illustrating the market as a community hub. Through this project, Megan has observed and experienced the transformative power of engaging directly with communities to challenge and enrich the prevailing narratives about cities. Through her community-engaged arts practice, Recipes for Community, she creates spaces to share these stories.
Megan is excited to learn about Rochester’s history and community through bicycling around the city, supporting local farmers markets and businesses, and working with the CCE team. As Program Manager for Community-Engaged Learning, she looks forward to working with students and faculty as they explore their own relationship with the Rochester community.
