Join us for Remaking Democracy: How We Make the Worlds We Want – Book Launch, Exhibit, and Performance, celebrating 35 years of the School for Designing a Society
In conversation with moderator Carol Ammons, Danielle Chynoweth and Elizabeth Adam will discuss Remaking Democracy: How We Make the Worlds We Want, a newly published guidebook for social change that, at this crucial moment on the clock of the world, offers analysis and strategy for sustainable transformation.
Drawing from race and gender justice, radical education, and experimental art, Remaking Democracy invites participation in creating the abundant worlds we want.
It tells the story of a series of interconnected local to global projects that started in Urbana: The School for Designing a Society, Urbana-Champaign Independent Media Center, CU Citizens for Peace and Justice, Healthcare Design Intensives with Dr. Patch Adams, and Cunningham Township’s campaign to end homelessness.
The event features work by artists connected through 35 years of the School for Designing a Society: Elizabeth Adams, Aaron Ammons, Roberta Bennett, Herbert Brun, Danielle Chynoweth, Cope Cumpson, Mark Enslin, Christopher Evans, Jeff Glassman, Meadow Jones, Elvy Kinbell, Kate McDowell, Keith Moore, Susan Parenti, and elizaBeth Simpson.
Event is free but a sliding scale donation of $10-60 is encouraged to help pay the performers and support the book tour. Donations of $20 or more receive a signed copy of the book.
