Makers on the Move | Poetry in Motion : Turn Words into Digital Art

In partnership with , we are curating a series of free in-community workshops in Do Greater's Creative Mobile Lab, called Makers on the Move. This series features eclectic workshops from some of the city’s finest creatives.

During the workshop Poetry in Motion: Turn Words into Digital Arts, participants will write a short poem inspired by a fun prompt, then use MacBook Airs and simple design tools to turn their words into visually expressive digital art. They can save a digital copy to take home and optionally share their creation with the group.

This workshop is led by a poet, curator, and community-builder who uses storytelling as a sacred tool for connection, healing, and joy, Dasia Hood. Known for her warm facilitation style and creative approach to group work, Dasia has led experiences in museums and cultural spaces in Charlotte, NC. Her workshops blend poetry, sensory exploration, and intentional dialogue to spark reflection and community—especially within Black families and multigenerational groups.
