COMMUNITY – Programmed by Dr. Erin Partridge
Community Discussion Series
MONDAY, JULY 14,21,28
In December and January we gathered at THE 222 for three discussions sessions about Authenticity. Each evening focused on a different angle: Art, Performance, and Community. We followed this process with an additional three sessions focusing on Purpose in March and April. As before, the discussion questions stimulated wide-ranging conversation. Notes from the sessions informed the creation of a word cloud. The quantitative data shows in size—the larger the word, the more frequently it occurred. Another more intuitive way to look at a word cloud is to see which words stand out or to notice if there are words missing.
We are interested in continuing to host these exploratory conversations. The next series will venture a little more into the abstract asking the question “why?” It seems like a pressing question in today’s world. Why do we engage with art? Why do we give and witness performances? And why do we seek and create community? The sessions will build on each other, but people should feel free to attend whichever they can.
Join us for a participatory discussion- no experts or lectures- just good community inquiry.
