Buzzer Thirty Information

Buzzer Thirty strives above of all else to expand contemporary ideas and practices of pedagogy, in particular as they are employed to enliven the arts. The physical space Buzzer Thirty provides to artists, writers, critics, theorists, teachers and students is an educational one—intended to promote experimentation, revision, demystification, eros , growth, enthusiasm and concern. Buzzer Thirty is a community-based center that strives to address everyone it encounters as a teacher and a student—every experience and event is one that we attempt to charge with pedagogical significance. Buzzer Thirty not only wants to provide the spatial and temporal opportunities for the expression of ideas and thoughts, but also the means and language to do so—it is a literacy project, whether that literacy be of a visual, emotional, political, aesthetic, or linguistic nature. In working towards fulfilling such aspirations, the center plans, organizes, and hosts art exhibitions, readings, teacher-education seminars, lectures, film talks, and writing, art and media classes with the support and guidance of local educators, artists, and theorists. It is through these projects that Buzzer Thirty hopes to challenge familiar existing conventions of what is known as, or thought to be, public and adult education. Specialties Arts, Writing
