{season I} autumn 2006 ~ Tobeapart

This season the Schoolhouse will be in session on Tuesdays 8am - 8pm.

The topic/title for this first schoolhouse season will be tobeapart. At times we all need to be individuals acting alone. Being social creatures we also have a profound need to engage with others. What can we do as collectives, communities and groups that we can't do on our own? What can we do as individuals that we can't do as a group? How has our simultaneous need to be both an individual and part of something bigger been complicated and affected by contemporary society, urban sprawl, mass media, political movements...? How can the artist, writer, designer, performer become an active agent in society today as an individual? As a collective? More thoughts and questions coming....! All of the teachers for the Autumn 2006 season in some way deal with these issues in their practice.
