What would it mean to reimagine sports through the lens of a solidarity economy?
This summer gathering invites participants to consider the political, economic, and cultural dimensions of athletics, physical labor, and collective wellness.
From questions of ownership and governance to the role of working-class and BIPOC communities in sustaining the sports industry, our Worcester Field Day explores how cooperative models can reshape our relationship to movement, competition, and public life.
Kickball Tournament - 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM
