About this Event

Skinfolk: The Society of Nonconformists with Sharyll Burroughs

At Art Design Xchange, author and artist Sharyll Burroughs builds her forthcoming book of essays through a live, year-long exploration of Black nonconformity—centering mavericks not as icons, but as practitioners of refusal whose work reveals something essential about the human condition.

Each gathering shapes the manuscript in real time, with audience dialogue and contributions directly influencing the writing process. This month spotlights George Clinton—P-Funk visionary, Dada revolutionary, and certified rule breaker—through hip-shaking beats, crazy visuals, spoken word, and unfiltered conversation. ALL ARE WELCOME.

RSVP to lend your voice. Be part of the experiment. Defy convention. Help shape the anthology. A suggested donation of $20 or crowdfunding contributions to GoFundMe sustain the research, writing, and public conversations that make the anthology possible.
