Abstract: This study examines This, and my Heart, an community based art project by Lynne Yamamoto that incorporated archival materials. This exhibition was part of the Art ConText partnership, a collaborative artist residency program between the Rhode Island School of Design Museum and Providence Public Library in Providence, Rhode Island. The study evaluates how this project engaged the community, accomplished the goals of the participating institutions, and provided opportunities for learning through interviews and examination of documentation about the exhibition project. Themes including "Serving the Community," "Collaboration," and "Incorporation of Archival Materials" are discussed.
