Praise House Language Workshop

The Praise House Language Workshop will be an open circle of play guiding uplifting art, dance, music, and sounds of prayer & praise!

Chicago Cultural Center

Inspired by the Historical Praise Houses of the black community, the Praise House language workshop is a creative circle of play in multiple expressions that is rooted in soulful praise. Developed from a 5-month creative process with artists, care professionals, and participant families centering on care and shared learning, this event utilizes testimonials, dance, discussion, art-making, and song to explore our individual and collective purpose and relationship with God. Participants of all experiences, beliefs, and backgrounds are invited to our creative practice that is being used to develop Praise and Worship. The Praise House Language workshop facilitation is informed by Keisha Janae's spiritual and faith-based experience that cherishes the worship of God through Christ Jesus at its center.Praise House Facilitation: Keisha Janae, Paige Brown, Isabella Brown, Mandela OkerePraise House Music: Sam Thousand, DJ Double 8 <ul><li>***Important note: This event is open to families and welcomes participants aged 5 and up.
