Like a viable seed, a connection contains the potential for the beginning of a relationship. And each relationship builds knowledge and soul strength…Relationships are at the heart of changing the world.
—Bonnie Neugebauer, founding editor of Exchange Press, co-founder of the World Forum Foundation

We hope our Spring 2024 issue is now in your hands (or on your screen) and you’re soaking up articles that Focus on the Arts, plus considerations on everything from birthday parties, to equity and leadership, to rethinking developmentally appropriate practice. Reading can spur us to reflection and even action. We at Exchange Press also want it to be a pathway for connection, the kind of connection Bonnie Neugebauer describes in today’s quote.

Now we invite you to take your engagement with these topics to the next level by joining us on February 29 at 7 pm US Eastern Time (New York) for an Engaging Exchange to connect with our community, including some of this issue’s contributing authors, and together consider the ideas they’ve shared. The event will feature a panel discussion with some of the issue’s authors, and a chance to join a small group discussion on one of the timely topics covered in the spring issue.

Connect more deeply with the Exchange community and the issues that matter to our field. The event is free, but you must register to attend. We look forward to seeing you there!
