Imagining Together: A Celebrate Learning Week Keynote Viewing and Lunch Conversation

This event is part of the 2026 Celebrate Learning Week, taking place from May 4 – 8, 2026.

Join us at both campuses to watch the Celebrate Learning Week opening keynote together, then stay for lunch and conversation.

Dr. Mia Zamora’s keynote, The Future of Learning Must Invite Us to Imagine: Freedom Dreaming for Liberatory Education, opens the day by asking us to consider the significance of imagination in our work as educators — and what it means to dream in a world increasingly shaped by algorithmic logic. Her talk will explore everyday practices and design strategies that can lead us toward becoming self-actualized shapers of a more just and sustainable world.

We’ll watch the live stream together as a community, then carry those ideas into lunch — building on the collective imagining Mia sets in motion and exploring what freedom dreaming might look like in our own teaching and learning contexts.

10:00 am – 11:30 am | Live stream viewing of the CLW keynote

11:30 am – 1:00 pm | Lunch and community conversation
