This season of spring has brought a lot of hope, and it's a beautiful thing to hold onto some light at the end of a really dark year. We are eager and hopeful to share that we are planning for a May 2022 Session. Over a year away, we know, but it still feels very life-giving to have that future gathering to look towards. We WILL be together AGAIN!
We know that it's more important than it ever has been for our sessions to be accessible, for them to be equitable. We are currently planning a fundraising campaign that we hope will ensure this happens this year more than ever. We are working towards a Future for SotA that includes additional access to our sessions through more scholarships, continuing to offer Black Equity scholarships, fair payments for faculty and staff, and an increased supply budget so that we can host a greater diversity of classes. We are on the path to creating the radical future for SotA that we've all been dreaming up together.

SotA Digital Programming: We're Out Here!
We are deeply missing holding space for and with you right now. As we move thoughtfully through this digital chapter of SotA, our priority is a communion that reflects our values and our commitment to holding a safe(r) space for all. Our hope is to continue to build and sustain a community of radical learning, together.
We are continually shifting our programming as the needs of our community + the world continues to change. Most recently we've offered 2 Instagram classes: How to Sew a Shirt with Sarah Myers (they/them) and The Future of Education: A Futurist Theoretical Practicum with Khonsu Ra (he/him). Both classes are saved in our Instagram highlights: take a peek! We're also currently offering a 4-week class, Screenwriting Rooted in Decolonization and Abstract Thinking with Maria Judice (she/her/they/them) (this is currently in session but we hope to offer it again later this year), and we just wrapped up a 🌸Countdown to Spring 🌸 group thread/class led by Carolyn A'hearn (she/her/them/them).
We've loved sharing space with you digitally over the past 12 months, but would love to hear from you: what do you want to see in our digital programming?
