Listening for a Change: Podcast-Based Discussions with Dev’n Goodman

*This is a virtual event.*
Second Saturday of each month, January–May 2021
10-11 am

Join the Modern in partnership with Dev’n Goodman, founder of the podcast A Good Man’s Education Conversation, as we learn from key podcasts and have in-depth conversations on how to activate our new perspectives into actionable steps for a modern world. Each month, selected podcast episodes are assigned with specific topics of discussion in mind. Links to the podcasts and other details will be provided with an email confirming your registration.

The virtual meetings begin with a conversation between Goodman and a member of the Museum staff based on the selected topic, followed by an open discussion with program participants on thoughts conjured and illuminated by the two podcasts assigned for the session.

To register for each session of interest, please email the education department here. Participation is limited to assure productive conversations.
