About this Event

EVENT DETAILS

Are you ready to use art as a tool for dialogue and social change? This two-hour, hands-on workshop is designed for leaders, artists, activists, and community members who want to make an impact. No prior theater experience is needed—just an open mind and a willingness to participate!

Through a series of dynamic theater games and interactive exercises, you’ll play as a community as you explore a collective identity, connect with others, and envision new possibilities for action. Here’s what you’ll experience:


Explore Who are we: Gain self-awareness and explore your identity within a community.

Seeing the World Together: Visualize shared experiences and connect with others.

Understanding Why: Engage in problem-solving and explore the root causes of social issues.

Taking Action as a Community: Exploring the potential for co-creating a plan for healing, education, or social change.


This workshop isn’t just about performance; it’s about creating space for transformation, healing, and growth. You’ll leave with new tools for self-expression, hopefully, a stronger connection to your community, and a clearer sense of how you can contribute to meaningful change.

Whether you’re seeking personal healing, a deeper understanding of social justice, or ways to use your voice for education, this workshop offers the insights and tools to make an impact

This workshop is for you if you’re:


  • Part of a grassroots organization looking for new ways to engage your community
  • A community member or teacher eager to drive change
  • Curious about how art can serve as activism
  • Interested in building connections and fostering healing within your community



Pay what you can/ Sliding scale - Suggested $10-$40
