Thank you for your interest in participating in Zeno’s Summer Institute 2021!
The event will be held August 31st – September 2nd, 2021, online.
We welcome workshops, presentations, and keynotes from community members that
align with our mission, and focus on math, play, families, or racial equity.
Please contact Zeno at info@zenomath.org if you have any questions about this form or Summer Institute 2021.
Math is foundational in every culture and community. At Zeno, we know that children and families of color are doers and lovers of math, and we seek to honor, amplify, and celebrate the positive math experiences within the communities we partner with. All of our work – from program and game design to our staff and events – considers the impact of race, place, language, and culture and how that is directly linked to experiences, attitudes, and mindsets about math. For this reason, we encourage and prioritize space for BIPOC presenters in all of our events and programming.
