Open Public Dialogue: Tenderness as a Practice of Resistance
Presented by the Moleskine Foundation and Creativity Pioneers Fund
What if remaining tender were the most radical thing we could do? How do we hold our heartbreak without letting it harden us?
The Moleskine Foundation and the Creativity Pioneers Fund take this conversation to ODC Theater: an open public dialogue on creativity, care, and resistance. The Bay Area – a region shaped by technological power and long histories of land struggle and mutual aid – is exactly the right place to have it.
Tenderness as a Practice of Resistance gathers artists, activists, and cultural practitioners from across the world to ask what it means to remain tender: not as softness or retreat, but as a relational ethic, a disciplined refusal of cruelty, and an act of resistance in a world that too often demands otherwise.
Curated by the Creativity Pioneers Fund. Supported by Moleskine Foundation, The Charlotte Mailliard Shultz Fund, Community Wellness Fund, and ODC Theater.
