CONTENT //Skill building and group process around navigating differences in lived experience and opinion. How can artists and cultural workers come together to create compassionate yet challenging spaces? We will explore conflict resolution strategies, somatic tools for emotion regulation, consensus-building, and collective process design techniques. We will honor the lineage and teachings of Transformative Justice and Restorative Justice as paradigms for social change.

ACCESSIBILITY // I am comfortable receiving most clientele groups in my workshops. However, it is important for all of us to feel “safe enough” in this conversation that the participants come willing and ready to talk about situations where conflicts over identity, micro-aggression, and ideological differences have taken place. The idea of having compassion for people who have done hurtful or harmful things will be introduced and talked about in detail. If this would be too triggering for any potential participant, I would suggest that they not attend the workshop at this time.
