Salon
The Context Salon is a monthly online Zoom gathering where we engage in deeper critical thinking discussions that cover a broad range of topics.
A salon, in its historical context, refers to a gathering of intellectuals, artists, and thinkers where participants engage in deep discussions, share ideas, and critique one another's work.
Originating in 17th-century France, salons became prominent during the Enlightenment as spaces for promoting critical thinking and fostering cultural and philosophical advancements. These gatherings served as informal yet influential forums where new ideas could flourish, challenging established norms and encouraging the exchange of innovative thoughts.
The Context Salon highlights the importance of community in the pursuit of knowledge, enlightenment, and wisdom. Join us!
