Maxine Greene Institute
SALON SERIES

The MGI Salon Series is conceived of as a series of conversations with artists,scholars, educators, students, and others inspired by the work of Maxine Greene. It is our hope that these Salons will provide a place for an exchange of ideas and a sharing of artworks, teaching practices related to aesthetic education, and examples of social imagination.
