WORKSHOPS + SPEAKING

Art Can Start a Conversation.

I work with schools, educators, museums, universities, and community organizations to create engaging learning experiences centered on art, identity, creativity, belonging, and education.

From artist talks and student workshops to professional learning and conference presentations, each experience is shaped around the audience, setting, and goals of the organization.

WAYS TO WORK WITH ME

FEATURED EXPERIENCE

Shades of Us

Art. Identity. Color. Conversation.

Shades of Us is a collaborative art experience that invites participants to look closely at the colors within their own skin while exploring ideas connected to identity, representation, and colorism.

Using chalk pastel on brown kraft paper, participants create drawings of the back of their hand and arm, observing the variety of colors, undertones, highlights, and shadows that make up skin.

Individual drawings come together as a collaborative installation celebrating the range of shades and identities within a community.

The experience can include an artist talk, guided discussion, hands-on workshop, or a combination depending on the needs of the group.

EVERY EXPERIENCE IS DIFFERENT

Built Around Your Community.

No two schools or organizations are exactly alike, so programs can be adapted based on your audience, schedule, learning goals, available materials, and setting.

Experiences may range from a single presentation or classroom workshop to multiple class sessions, professional learning, collaborative projects, or larger school and community programs.
