Announcing the Known and Elsewhere Collective, Parapraxis Books, and our new space in Oakland. — Parapraxis

Later that same night, we will be celebrating the launch of the collective and our space, as well as Parapraxis Issue 08: Groups, at Thee Stork Club. New York, we’ll see you for a party at Rodeo on Friday, October 2.

Come visit us at 1742 Franklin Street, Oakland during our open house on September 12, 12–6. The bookstore will be open, and we’ll have a marathon reading of Parapraxis contributors.

Any amount will help us hire space and intake coordinators, expand our programming, and ensure we keep our spaces for those who will use them–all with an aim of making a sustaining therapeutic collective for Oakland. You can pledge here: www.thepsychosocialfoundation.org/donate

Through a generous gift from a private donor, we have secured our space in Uptown for five years. To make this space and its work all they can be, and to offer all it can to Oakland, and to stay there, we need your help. Today we launch the Muriel Gardiner Campaign.

Five years ago, we began to dream up this collective, imagining, through deep research and historical thinking, what it might mean to develop such a project here in Oakland in the 21st century.

These twin pillars of praxis and theory have always been our guiding mission at The Psychosocial Foundation, Parapraxis, and in all our associated projects.

We know that we have a deeply international community of thinkers and students; most everything will remain in hybrid form. And absolutely everything will remain on offer sliding scale, down to free.

The bookstore opens onto our educational space, home to everything we have built over the last five years: our seminar, our book events, symposia, and our short courses. We now have a physical space for film screenings, political education, & to host winter/summer schools.

Next door, Parapraxis Books is the only psychoanalytic bookstore in the United States. Yes, Parapraxis magazine and its print projects will be available, but so will new and used psychoanalytic books in a half dozen languages. Come by, browse, or request a title.

Next month, the Known and Elsewhere Collective will offer individual and group therapy, assessment, supervision groups, consultation to left spaces/other clinics, & therapeutic support for asylum cases. Services will be offered sliding-scale, down to $1. www.thepsychosocialfoundation.org/therapy
