Research + Practice Fall 2026

Wed, Oct 28 · 6:30 PM Flagg Building · Foggy Bottom

The creative practitioners presenting at this semester’s GWU Corcoran “Research + Practice” event series build on a project in bringing together the arts and design in dialogue. The GWU Corcoran learning community and the artists and designers of the DC region recognize a shared purpose in elevating the culture-shaping work(s) of diverse and free expression. The “Research + Practice” happenings are a supportive platform for connecting ideas and people across the creative fields; they encourage interdisciplinary exchange as a vital ingredient in advancing both arts-design scholarship and the arts and design in society. All events will be Wednesday nights, 6:30pm-8:00pm 9/23/2026: Jomo Tariku - Hammer auditorium 9/30/2026: Beverly Price - Hammer auditorium 10/21/2026: Ilona Gaynor - Hemicycle 10/28/2026: Cannupa Hanska Luger + Eric Gottesman - Atrium + Bridg The “Research + Practice” event series launched in the 2023-24 academic year as a way to connect GWU Corcoran students with arts-design practitioners.

Welcome to AskAlice

Hi, I'm Alice.

I go out a lot around DC, Virginia and Maryland, and I got tired of losing hours to Instagram Stories and a dozen venue calendars just to find out what was happening. So I built this to do that watching for me — real, confirmed events pulled from hundreds of sources, sorted so you can find your night instead of hunting for it.
