"Beginning with Me: Creating Authentic Community"

 

A free 3–hour experiential workshop

 

Sunday, August 4th, 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm at CitySpace on the Downtown Mall

 

What is the definition of “community”? Where do communities fail? What could they be? Participants will have the opportunity to self-reflect and interact with one another around the way’s communities fail and how they could succeed in cultivating rich diversity, equity, and a celebration/honoring of difference. We will then practice some structures and practical tools designed to enable us to effectively communicate across differences of race, culture, religion, socio-economic class, gender, ethnicity, and sexual orientation in a community setting.
