Radical and Alternative Pedagogies Discussion (02.28.2016 @ The Public School)

Join an ongoing discussion and research project that began with the question “Do artists need art school?”

Since October 2015, a group has met regularly to feel and think our way around alternative pedagogies, and research contemporary and historical models for community-based education. (Including the PLM’s La Escuela Rationalista and La Casa del Obrero Internacional, both of which operated a century ago close by the Public School location).

With a mid-term goal of hosting a ‘tabling day’ for the many rad ped/alt ped groups and orgs that SoCal holds, we’re currently in process of compiling information on local contemporary alternative practices.

Bring your thoughts to the conversation, and ideas for projects to include.
Sunday February 28th at 2 PM - 4 PM
