Art Workshop

In this Art workshop we will be creating works with different artistic media to learn how to tell our stories as people with disabilities. We will explore the different ways art has been used in advocacy and build upon these examples to create personal artworks throughout the workshop. Our goal is for participants to gain confidence in advocating for themselves, whether personally or systems wide by developing a sense of self-agency and community connection through the creation of expressive projects. (Youth and adults with disabilities)

When:  June 22nd – July 20th (Wednesdays), 3:00pm – 4:30pm

Where: Independence First 540 S 1st St. Milwaukee, WI 53204
