Et Cultura and Open Partnership Education Network – OPEN present Radical Schools Jams

This is a unique opportunity to take part in an uplifting experience that will inspire youth, celebrate teachers, and expand our intellectual conversations on K-12 schools!

As part of the festival we are dedicating a full day (Friday, Nov. 17) to K-12 education issues through the Rad Schools Jam, which will intersect discussions on K-12 topics, music and sports.
