Transforming our racial awareness is an inside job. Using Open Studio Process (OSP) we will identify points in personal history that make up our racial understanding. We invite you to join us in an exploration of the strengths and vulnerabilities in our personal and collective stories.
Participants will:
- set an intention about exploring racial awareness
- create art about a point of personal history
- witness their process
This Expressive Arts Florida Institute workshop will be recorded and the recording will be posted in the forum after the workshop, for viewing only by those who have registered for the workshop. To ensure confidentiality of participants, the recording will be paused during sharing.
