About this Event

We know that late-night talk shows organize our attention to celebrities. Couch on the Street is inspired by artist Claudio Padro's work in Brazil where he pulled furniture onto the street and interviewed people from all walks of life. What happens when we create a talkshow for everyone else?

"Couch on the Street" is one of our new interventions happening on Thursday, Sept. 26, 8PM-10:30PM, at The Strand Theater, Dorchester. We invite you to engage and explore and be inspired to create your own interventions.

PLEASE REGISTER TO ATTEND!

We design social interventions that engage populations in imagining and designing new solutions to social problems. For us, social interventions are actions taken to reconfigure social habits, unspoken agreements or arrangements that, prior to the intervention, add to the durability and normalcy of a social problem. We focus on social interventions because we believe they can affect both formal hierarchical systems like school systems and complex nonlinear systems like cultures.

We share our methodology to support others in designing social interventions.

We invite YOU to design your own interventions.
