Activist
Under-Served, At-Risk, Non-Profit, Global Community
CULTURAL ACTIVISM PROVIDES INTERNATIONAL BENEFITS AND IS MY SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY AS A GLOBAL CITIZEN AND AS AN ARTIST.
Do you believe that you are a part of not just one community or one country, but to the entire world? We are all global citizens! Specializing in transformational creative connections, one of my purposes is to work with under-served groups of all ages to develop a powerful sense of self as well as relationships with each other through physical movement, visual, literary and performance art. These connections open the creative neural paths to embrace situations in everyday life as an artist (an empowered creator).
It is through the metaphorical creative process that the creative self is empowered, the connection to community is developed, and the underlying relational goals of are uncovered. If I have the opportunity to facilitate and witness the making of self-sustaining, deeply connected changes in the lives of others and in their communities, then I too, am connected.
Workshops & activities listed are my community projects where I create connections and share with communities everywhere. While sharing projects, workshops and skills internationally, I will also connect international communities and projects to each other through online communities and virtual classrooms.
WHY IS ACTING AS A CREATOR OR AN ARTIST IMPORTANT?
It is through the expansion of thought, looking at the world differently, recognizing our own power and choosing to create our lives as we want that true change will take place. Recognizing our own power, the control we have over our own life, and our ability to choose, are the first steps to creating an inspired community. Once we as members of a community recognize our individual power, we can find commonalities within and set goals as a greater community to make change…real, relational, creative change.
