    Hi Jinny, thanks for your interest!

    We will post a full schedule of the symposium on the blog shortly– please be on the lookout for it. In the meantime, Prof Asad’s keynote will be at 5/3, 6:30pm in the James Gallery at the CUNY Graduate Center. The workshop sessions with Jini Kim Watson, Amiel Melnick, Anjuli Raza Kolb, Shea McManus, Kareem Rabie, and Jeremy Rayner will take place on 5/4 throughout the day.

    We will also be having an event with Elizabeth Povinelli on April 20th. (info to be sent out over listserv and posted on this blog)

    Hope to see you at some of these events.
