- **Event Name**: Somatics and Art for Culture Shift
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 19 Apr, 2026 at 10:00 am – Sun, 19 Apr, 2026 at 01:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: In this workshop we will explore the overlap of somatic practice and art for culture shift. We will begin by looking at how some aspects of our overculture – hyper-activity, electronic devices, systems of oppression, capitalism – live in and pattern our bodies. And our bodies, in turn, create our collective culture, often through our creations. Therefore both our bodies and our creations are places where we can interrupt patterns of harm and create more freedom. Through a guided somatic process, we will approach our bodies with gentleness and curiosity to see what is there. From this felt place, we will move, sound, and express. Feeling and expressing not only helps us to identify what is there, but also opens the possibility of change. The second half of the workshop will be a guided creative session making art for culture shift. As artists, we have a potent role in shifting our society towards justice, wellbeing, and reverence for life. Using the inspiration of what we find in our embodied practice, we will enter into the creative process. Starting with a creative prompt, this will be open time where we work individually, letting our bodies and inspiration guide us. Each person will choose the medium in which they work – dance, voice, theater, writing, drawing, etc. We will each create, share our work, and have discussion about the pieces. Facilitated by Neva Cockrell
