Theme: Circles All Around Us

We invite presenters to propose sessions focused on supporting collective and individual well-being through the arts. You can propose an 85-minute or 3-hour deep-dive session. We seek the highest quality, hands-on, experiential workshops that are aesthetically curated to transform the whole teacher. We will prioritize sessions that focus on hands-on, engaged learning. We are looking for sessions that begin with action and teach through experience. Clearly state what participants will actively do during your workshop.
