Hull House

The John Dewey Society’s 2023 Annual Meeting was held in Chicago from March 2 to March 4. Special thank you to Ross Jordan, Curatorial Manager at the Jane Addams Hull-House Museum. Our one-day event at Hull House was inspiring, thanks in no small part to the hospitality and guidance provided by Ross.

The Residents' Dining Hall at Hull-House Museum, a beautiful Arts and Crafts building that has welcomed some of the world's most important thinkers, artists and activists, including participants in the 2023 annual meeting.

The 2022 annual meeting of the John Dewey Society took place at the Centro Cultural de la Raza, in San Diego, California, with a theme of “Border Justice and InterAmerican Cooperation.”

Thank you to Christopher Tirres, the 2022 John Dewey Memorial Lecture, for this engaging lecture, “Spiritual Healing on the Border: Lessons in Art, Culture, and Education”

The John Dewey Society was happy to partner with Shelburne Farms for their 2021 annual meeting. Shelburne Farms is an education nonprofit on a mission to inspire and cultivate learning for a sustainable future. Their breath-taking home campus is a 1,400-acre working farm located on the unceded, traditional, and contemporary homelands of the Winooskik band of the Abenaki.

The grave of John Dewey on the University of Vermont campus. A quiet place to re-dedicate ourselves to the struggle for a just, democratic, and humane society.
