Create and Heal
Create and Heal will be honoring the 2024 Black History Month theme: African Americans and the Arts! Guest facilitators, Imani Aanu and Brandon Madyun will share their experiences around visual and performance arts unique to the African American culture, followed by two interactive workshops. The evening opens with a hands-on art workshop in the Carver drum (lobby) followed by a 1-hour African movement workshop in the Carver dance studio. Deepen your knowledge and immerse yourself in the arts, as we learn about these two artistic disciplines together.

Moveable breathable attire, comfortable footwear, and a refillable water are encouraged. Light refreshments will be served throughout the evening.
