Register for Transforming Texts
Can we redefine our futures by redefining our forms? How might the act of reading together itself be transformative? Transforming Texts takes place monthly in 2025 as part of the Department of Transformation’s residency at The Clemente. 

This free and open program invites participants to propose complex, challenging, and otherwise urgent texts for collective investigation. Through a collaborative process, the group will both identify specific readings and develop experimental formats for engagement, drawing on a wide range of disciplines and modes of practice to cultivate a community of creative connectivity while building an ongoing bibliography of transformative texts for our times.

Please complete this short form by March 4, 2025 to take part in Transformation Texts as part of Department of Transformation‘s micro-residency at The Clemente.
