About this Event

The Actors Theatre Workshop (ATW) is opening its doors to create a sanctuary for human connection in an increasingly divided world. This workshop isn’t just a class; it's a gathering where your voice matters and your story is heard. This is an opportunity for all people to come together - - from immigrants to young people to senior citizens - - to share your ideas in a safe, creative space and rediscover the deep sense of humanity that connects us all.

This scholarship creative workshop provides a platform to meet open-minded people, speak your truth, and build a collective consciousness where everyone wins. Through patience, listening, and organic growth, we are building a movement that reaffirms who we are as a nation and chooses light over darkness.

For over 35 years, ATW has been a pillar for individual expression, and we now invite you into a safe haven where you can explore your imagination without fear. Whether you are feeling isolated by modern life or enraged by the state of the world, this workshop offers a secure environment to express opinions and generate original ideas. Through creative exercises, you will find the freedom and spontaneity to write and think about your vision for the future alongside a supportive community.

Program Details:

  • When: Twice a month on Wednesdays from 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM (Starting February 11th).
  • Where: Available in-person at ATW and via Zoom.
  • To Join: RSVP and answer key questions to understand your goals for the class
  • During the class: All students must actively participate - - this is not an observation class.
