About this Event
150 Hicks Way, Amherst, Massachusetts 01003
The Arts Sustainability Activism 2024 - 2025 series in connection with the MFA for Poets and Writers presents Writers at Work featuring Jason Daniel Schwartz (MFA 2005).
Jason Daniel Schwartz is a political strategist working on campaigns for climate and economic justice. Schwartz co-leads the US political team for The Sunrise Project, which pushes for better state and federal climate and labor policy—and to defeat policies that enact denial of climate change and the energy transition.
Writers at Work showcases the way writers and other artists find careers in which to apply their skills, and the ways art lovers bring the arts into their lives. Editors, publishers, activists, booksellers, arts administrators and other professionals share how their careers and their love of literary and other arts intersect.
Please join us on October 10, 2024, at 6:00pm in South College, Room E470.
