What Art Does: An Unfinished Theory by Brian Eno and Bette Adriaanse is a brief and thought-provoking exploration of what makes something “art” and why art has been part of human life for as long as there have been human beings. It is a chance to understand how art is made by all of us and how it creates communities, opens our worlds, and can transform us.

Why Attend?

• We will explore the author's hope for the book, that it causes us to reassess the value of these two things: playing and feeling.
