Jackson lays out principles for fostering inclusive, insightful gatherings and gathering spaces centered around art and art-making. We love Jackson’s tenet that artists and community-builders should be “amplifying new authorities” – in other words, recognizing that lived experience is as valuable to constructive discourse as is learned knowledge. We’re excited to unpack how JETco. gatherings can become platforms for this kind of amplification. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9f0bd09a49e1055fc631c7/1605548396706-QXAZB4LOPFH44IEKIVYE/600_Highwaymen_Armory_Headshot_WEB_003-copy.jpg Our Library 600 Highwaymen teaches us about gathering with care, celebrating the body, and building community through shared vulnerability. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9f0bd09a49e1055fc631c7/1601529078491-C0S3ZDKRJ92ZMUXTU7CT/91JzfoD4KHL.jpg Our Library - The Art of Gathering BY PRIYA PARKER Priya Parker’s The Art of Gathering is our bible, a core foundational text that informs and strengthens our practice as JETco. and as ourselves. In exploring her “human-centered approach to gathering,” Parker walks readers through the myriad considerations necessary for creating gatherings that have purpose and, through purpose, power. In particular, we’re excited and challenged by the potential applications of the lessons of this book to theatre-making and performance-sharing. In fact, a core focus of our work at JETco. is throwing concepts from Parker’s gathering structures (host, invitation, purpose) and theatrical tools into an artistic crucible and forging new gatherings from the raw material. Also, truly a fun read, y’all. Parker’s prose is thought-provoking, electric, and worth returning to again and again. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9f0bd09a49e1055fc631c7/1602467216179-0560PFP5D8QOY7XBBUY5/taylor-mac-act-7-quick-16jpg-a0a0ff6aeb795a55.jpg Our Library - Taylor Mac Taylor Mac teaches us about gathering with irreverence, celebrating queer joy, and building community through shared exuberance. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9f0bd09a49e1055fc631c7/1602467140919-LE1V1GMOM1BEAY9G05TO/DSC_1877.jpg Our Library - For You, For You, teaches us about gathering with specificity, celebrating individuality, and building community through shared intimacy. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9f0bd09a49e1055fc631c7/1602466500416-MUU65L3W1R6LO30F25BG/uploads%252Fcard%252Fimage%252F990876%252F810165d8-73e5-4bf5-8f41-d2f1b676bd0a.jpg%252F950x534__filters%253Aquality%252880%2529.jpg Our Library Self-care isn't enough. We need community care to thrive. BY HEATHER DOCKRAY This mesmerizing article by Heather Dockray unpacks and preaches the gospel of community care, defined herein by a quote from organizer Nakita Valerio as “[people] committed to leveraging their privilege to be there for one another in various ways.” We found so many strands worth exploring in this article: community care as an actionable pathway to dismantling capitalism; community care as a “stepping stone to justice”; community care in conversation with close friendship and the chosen family. We believe that extraordinary gathering can be a rich, robust tool for advancing community care. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9f0bd09a49e1055fc631c7/1602467112402-X6G2G4O4790WKGVNW03N/alesheaharriscarousel.jpg__960x480_q85_crop_subsampling-2_upscale.jpg Our Library - Aleshea Harris Aleshea Harris teaches us about gathering with intention, celebrating Black voices, and building community through shared purpose. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9f0bd09a49e1055fc631c7/1602466523217-SMPFA40HQ7BQEHEY6OOR/1*h5NJaxHHyBrHBWgv5UM_rg.jpeg Our Library The Forgotten Art of Assembly BY NICHOLAS BERGER As we envision new old ways of being together, Nicholas Berger reminds us that some gatherings simply cannot be translated online. Berger writes astutely about the “defining quality of our field” – theater – “its liveness.” We think his words invite personal reflection on what is essential: an internal paring down of our schedules until we’re only spending time on activities that feel emotionally or spiritually fulfilling. In any case, we come back to this article time and again, and we encourage you to dive in as well. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9f0bd09a49e1055fc631c7/1602467184400-6DBEYBQ9HE358EEWNERW/200107_BeingWith_0777s.jpg Our Library Nichole Canuso Dance Company teaches us about gathering with courage, celebrating unexpected connections, and building community through shared wonder. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9f0bd09a49e1055fc631c7/1602467202417-3FPJ3TGPD66FQL9OMTOR/0FC09B24-E4FF-4CD7-BA2A-FE5C95B9C4D2%25252B%252525282%25252529.jpg Our Library Peoplmovr teaches us about gathering with clarity, celebrating collaboration, and building community through shared growth. https://www.jet-co.org/home-1 daily 1.0 2022-02-17 https://www.jet-co.org/starters daily 0.75 2021-01-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9f0bd09a49e1055fc631c7/1602512992347-J32XKSRKX9VH1LEYT7V9/1.jpg Starters 1.
