Pickpocket Almanack
Pickpocket Almanack is an experimental school without walls. Each season, under the direction of independent curator Joseph del Pesco, a temporary faculty comprised of artists, designers, writers, and filmmakers creates theme-based courses by selecting from a diverse series of scheduled public Bay Area events, including lectures, screenings, workshops, and panels. Each course takes these events out of context and gives them a new thematic frame, providing a set of journeys through Bay Area cultural life, as well as some new connections and unexpected discoveries, led by some of the community's most distinctive cultural figures. Faculty for the spring season: Claudia Altman-Siegel, Jim Fairchild, Amy Franceschini, Renny Pritikin, Jerome Waag.
Enrollment for the Spring season begins February 15th. Courses take place between February 22nd and May 30th, 2010.
