Bring Your Own Discussion

I was invited to be part of a discussion taking place at Harvard. The discussion will focus on the challenges that artists working in all forms face in getting paid for their creative work. Many discussions have been taking place live and online around these topics over the past couple of years, and they have taken place in different forms in decades past. Of course, no single discussion will solve the problem, but I’m looking forward to comparing notes with my fellow speakers, Jesal Kapadia of MIT and and Lise Soskolne of W.A.G.E.

Please join if you’re in the Boston area:

Wednesday, April 10 @ 7.00pm
Capenter Center for the Visual Arts
Harvard University
24 Quincy Street, Cambridge, MA 02138
This event is free and doesn’t require tickets or RSVP.
