Events

Please join us for “Choreographies of Survival” a Black feminist climate conversation between two SPCUNY alumni and authors Tao Leigh Goffe and Emily Raboteau who, although starting from different frameworks, both shine a light on the intersections of race and the ever-changing contours of climate risk in their new books.

The event will be followed by a book signing with the authors. Registration required.

This zine-making workshop (organized by SPCUNY Fellow Chy Sprauve) introduces participants to the pedagogical and political legacies of freedom schools in the Sea Islands and in rural Mississippi in the mid-20th century and asks them to craft writing that speaks to that legacy.

Join us at the Graduate Center for a talk about Art as Social Practice with SPCUNY Co-Directors Chloë Bass and Gregory Sholette.

The persistence of the idea of the commons is expressed as action in the transnational urban squatting movement, and the many occupations impulsed by social movements. Alan W. Moore joins SPCUNY Co-Director Greg Sholette and current SPCUNY Fellow Ashley Dawson for a discussion of Moore's work on “occupation culture.” This conversation is on the occasion of the “ABC No Rio at 45 Years” exhibition at Emily Harvey Foundation, NYC, April 2025.

E. Adamo's MFA thesis exhibition at Queens College, Tuesday, April 22nd from 6PM - 8PM.

Remember: the planet is an archive. On April 24th, join us for an experience of communal grief as we engage the climate crisis through art, embodiment, and conversation.
