The Hermit's Guide to Solitaire

Playing cards have been tools of underground resistance and community building for centuries. Even Solitaire can be a covert form of personal resistance and a path for self-reflection and insight.

Join us as we discuss the history of the game of Solitaire and how you can turn it into a discreet divination system. No experience necessary. Free.

  • Instructor: Laura Pensar

  • Saturday, May 17th 2:00-3:30pm

  • Free - supplies provided.

Presented as part of Amy Kligman’s Salon for Possible Futures at The Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art, Oppenheimer New Media Gallery (2nd floor).
