Words echo and gather strength

TBA and C Magazine present a series of workshops that lift language and ideas “off the page.” Participants are encouraged to explore the world-shaping function of narrative and poetics, which continue to be urgent amidst ongoing colonial violences. Working with artist facilitators, participants will develop approaches to expressions of voice in multiple mediums (poetry, zine making and more) to explore the influence of language, media, and art on how stories and knowledge are acted upon, shaped, and recorded. Through a lens of embodied critical practices, these workshops ask: What’s the relationship between movement, poetry, and art writing? How can print media and protest intervene in everyday life, through web-like ways? How does your voice influence your surroundings? What’s the missing story?
