Protest Poetry: Art-Making & Activism in Online Spaces

Students now make up one of the most active and outspoken generations of our time, but many are unable to participate in protests on the street. We hope to empower students to speak out and make your voices heard through your art-making. In this experiential workshop, participants will explore activism through creative writing and how they can translate that work into taking action.

Presented By:

Katie Rainey
