Starting May 8th, Mother's Day, Amber Berson and Juliana Driever, co-curators of The Let Down Reflex, are launching a monthly column on parenting in the arts, with contributions by artists: Dillon de Give, Home Affairs (Arzu Ozkal, Claudia Costa Pederson, and Nanette Yannuzzi), Leisure (Meredith Carruthers and Susannah Wesley), Lise Haller Baggesen, LoVid, and Shane Aslan Selzer, with an additional text from EFA Project space administrators Michelle Levy and Meghana Karnik.

The column takes shape in a series of interviews on revisionist approaches to accommodations and policies on the participation of families and parents in the arts and culture, and will be published over the course of three months. The questions and answers that form this special series for m/other voices are also an attempt to speak with you - the reader and we would love to hear your feedback. The full set of questions and contributions can be read here.

Order of publications:
May: Amber Berson & Juliana Driever / Lise Haller Baggesen / Dillon de Give
June: Home Affairs / Leisure / LoVid
July: Shane Aslan Selzer / Michelle Levy & Meghana Karnik, EFA Project Space
