NEXT TIME Symposium

NEXT TIME SYMPOSIUM was a four day happening comprised of conferences, lectures, performances, screenings and workshops, culminating in a publication release. As documentation is a focus of the NEXT TIME series, the live conversations will be archived and audio transcripts will be made freely available here.

NEXT TIME SYMPOSIUM delves into a dynamic landscape of questions surrounding contemporary image making, identity formation and arts practices. This series of casual conferences offers a salon-style format to build discussion of the current state of the drag arts, gender performance, gender politics, and feminist politics. envoy enterprises’ performance space will be transformed into an environment of pillows and mood lighting, offering a casual-critical space for social commerce.

NEXT TIME SYMPOSIUM encourages conversation-based discourse and increases mindfulness to our social, digital, and biological surroundings. We invite you to participate as a person of social vitality. All events are free and open to the public.

NEXT TIME centers around four conferences --
