Cultivating Equity with HeArtWork Collective
How do social position, bias and systemic oppression (e.g. racism, classism, adultism, sexism, etc.) play out in our lives and institutions? What levers do each of us have to create equitable and inclusive environments for all? Participants will self reflect on foundational concepts of social identity, power and culture, and explore the beliefs we carry with us consciously and unconsciously. We'll examine how our socialization can positively and negatively affect our interactions and practice community building strategies that are rooted in creativity and social justice.
Bring a courageous heart, a thirst for truth and an open mind.
HeArtWork Collective: Workshops, Conversations and Consulting at the intersection of culture, identity, equity and art.
