WORKSHOPS AND EVENTS
We host an assortment of seminars, workshops, talks, research sprints, and intensives including our controversial grant workshop, HOW TO COMMUNICATE IN WHITE PEOPLE, and our two-week portfolio intensive, IS MY BODY MEANT TO BE READ?
Collectively, our programming focuses on economic and institutional critique that asks artists to consider their studio practice as an independent business activity. Events are typically announced through our newsletter and on Instagram. You can also subscribe to our calendar on Luma.
