Protest! Cathartic Celebrations: Express resist/ release expand

Join us for a transformative day of creative expression and collective practice, where we explore the tension between resistance and release. This workshop reimagines ceremony, oral traditions, and reverence through an artistic lens, offering a space for cultural preservation and emotional expansion.

Inspired by Everyday She Rose, our upcoming production, and the radical reimagining of communal spaces for reflection and renewal, this experience invites you to engage with all your senses and activate your sensations. Through playful yet meaningful practices, we honor ancestral traditions and embrace our present reality while reclaiming space for connection, expression, and healing.

Our featured artists will guide you through:

• An Ancestral Plant Journey: Connect with the earth as we explore the significance of plants in culture and tradition.
• Body and Voice Exploration: Tap into the power of your emotions through movement and sound, discovering new ways to resist, release, and expand your sense of self.
• Eruption [An Experimental Cake Performance]: Taste test "edible" art tied to unceded territories and destructive conflict avoidance through sensory discomforts. 

Come ready to celebrate, protest, and play. Together, we’ll create a space that uplifts, challenges, and inspires.
