About this Event

What does it mean to set the record straight?

“For The Record” is a Hip Hop Healing workshop inviting young people to explore their stories and voice through creative writing, reflection, and community. Rooted in Hip Hop culture and healing-centred practices, this session creates space to express what’s often unspoken and to begin rewriting the narratives we carry.

You will engage in guided writing exercises, explore storytelling through Hip Hop, and have the opportunity to share their work in a supportive, judgment-free environment.

What to Expect

  • Guided creative writing prompts
  • Exploration of Hip Hop as storytelling
  • Reflection on identity, lived experience, and voice

This workshop draws on principles of narrative therapy, expressive writing, and culturally relevant pedagogy. You will build skills in emotional expression, self-awareness, and storytelling while also exploring how creativity can be a tool for personal growth and future opportunities.

You’ll Leave With:

  • A written piece (poem, rap, or song)
  • Greater confidence in your voice
  • Tools for self-expression and storytelling
  • A deeper connection to yourself and others

Who Is This For?

Youth and young adults interested in:

  • Creative writing, songwriting and storytelling
  • Hip Hop culture
  • Personal growth and reflection

No experience needed, just bring yourself and an open mind.
