Our next event is…

Cohere, Here on 16 November with Specs Studio

Join Currency House residents and cooperators Katie Giritlian and Amy Yoshitsu for Cohere, Here on 16 November from 4:00PM ET/1:00PM PT.

Cohere, Here is a curriculum and workshop about art, money, and collaborative labor created by Specs Studio, a design consulting cooperative co-founded by Katie Giritlian and Amy Yoshitsu.

Their prompts—rooted in many years as cooperative worker-owners, backgrounds in DIY spaces, and experiences as artists—create emotional safety and intellectual infrastructure for diverse groups of participants to candidly discuss their economic and artistic challenges, privileges, and strategies as creatives under capitalism.
