The STUDY CORPS is SoRA's in-house team of organizers, researchers, and facilitators for Attention Activism. Each month, we design, organize, and lead a diverse range of experimental STUDY gatherings throughout New York City.

Our cohort convenes twice a month at SoRA's Sanctuary in Dumbo to research facilitation techniques, refine our Attention Activism toolkit for SoRA's national network of allies, and experiment with new forms of grassroots study.

SoRA’s study gatherings often follow a monthly theme. You can read up on past themes here: LOVE in PUBLIC, FUGITIVE UTOPIAS, WHY “STUDY” IN THIS HEAT?, TACTICS of CARE, TIME, NOISE!, THE STATE, and SNAPSHOT. For examples of the kinds of gatherings we lead, see our Past Events and our Sidewalk Study Archive.

STUDY CORPS members are selected on a trimester basis. If you'd like to be considered for our next cohort, please send a cover letter, CV, and three references to <employment (at) sustainedattention (dot) net>.

Anyone who has participated in an Attention Lab or completed a SoRA seminar course is welcome to participate in our gatherings. Email <strotherschool (at) sustainedattention (dot) net> and let us know what past events you’ve attended in orderto join the invite list.
