Descripcíon
For activists, artists, and artist-activists! Art can contribute to changing people's perceptions, hearts and understandings of what has been, what is and what's possible. But art can't do it alone; people getting together and acting together is the real source of social change. The dignity and possibility in all people is the underlying message of this workshop, which will include "medicinal art" – meaning when we work with any community, start with a diagnosis. What keeps a group of people from knowing their power and acting on it? What stories then might be offered, to free up trapped energy, which can help reveal the possible avenues for collective action?
