What if there was a way of thinking about our own teachings an art practice, and what if our teaching-as-art-practice was the most radical form of expression to ever exist? This book presents an argument for this possibility in two forms: First through a lecture about the latent expertise of everydayness, the overlap of conceptual art and teaching, and the materiality of invisibility. Then, 33 teachers from DC, Virginia, and Maryland came together to write 120 pages in 90 minutes. In those pages the reader is treated to multiple lifetimes' worth of sage advice, scholarly and pedagogical inspiration, and conceptualizations for a teaching practice that is simultaneously an art work.

This book was produced through the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, DC.
