On January 17th, in collaboration with our anchor partner Creative Time, we hosted a comedy workshop facilitated by 2025 Artist in Action fellow Morgan Bassichis. Participants read a few key texts on the potentialities opened up through laughter, its relevance for social change, and then spent time writing comedic pieces about real life organizing challenges and opportunities and reading to each other.
