Be part of the “action” in this collaborative workshop by teaching artist Jimez Alexander.
Step into the spotlight in this interactive workshop. Using creativity and critical thinking, students will use their voices to collectively tell a story that they create and answer the question, "If the world would listen, what would I have to say?"
