Empowering Self Through Art Workshop Series Starting Mar 18

Empowering Self Through Art Workshop Series

Come enjoy this free art workshop geared to people with and without disabilities to learn about Public Art – Photography and Improv. comedy, sharing your perspectives, learning about inclusion while finding your voice and creating a community wide outdoor display. No experience required! We will meet via ZOOM for an hour and a half for six weeks. During this fast-paced workshop we will share our beliefs and voice, learn strategies for handling difficult conversations, meet new people, gain deeper understanding our similarities and differences while learning techniques in photography. We will see a live performance by BLACKOUT-Improv Comedy, and have a 45 minute intensive improv. experience – led by Joy, a professional Improv performer. We will discuss a different topic each week and work in small groups to have discussions to support each other while having FUN!

All community members are encouraged to come learn from each other, share your voice and make an impact in our community through art. We will also build confidence and use your new skills to share your message in a Carver County Public Art Display! BIPOC, LGBTQ+ and people with disabilities are encouraged to participate and welcome to this community building workshop! ASL interpretation available.
