Plans for The Work, January through April, 2026

In the coming year, and probably beyond, we will talk about practitioners (past and present) who believe(d) anyone can learn to make music, draw, dance act, or write. As always, we'll look into the politics and economics of the matter, and meet some strange and wonderful characters.

Below are the dates for early 2026, along with some of the topics. Speakers will be announced soon.

The meetings will be 7 p.m. E.S.T. on a Tuesday toward the end of each month, and then 2 p.m. E.S.T. the following Tuesday for a discussion. I moved the discussion time up by an hour, to make it work for more time zones.
