A 3-hour workshop for those earnestly seeking how to safely and lovingly welcome more people of color into their healing & art spaces led by Chantelle Casta˜no, a Cuban-Colombian multimedia artist and medicine woman.
Workshop will include...
- Lecture about how to diversify, not tokenize, and actually diversify spaces with real life solutions you can do on the physical realm and spiritual inquiry and exploration you can do on a personal level.
- A handout listing the real life solutions & spiritual inquiries
- Group discussion between participants
- Q & A time
- Reading handouts for participants to continue research
- Authentic relating games & somatic practices sprinkled in to break up time
