Alert
We are still finalizing aspects of this event. Info on this page is subject to change.
Join us for a day of reflection, learning and art.
We’re hosting three Creative Assemblies across the state where you will have a unique opportunity to work with fellow Coalition members to describe the experiences, issues, and situations affecting your community. Held in three different cities, the Creative Assembly format is designed to take us out of our comfort zones - together, we will recognize and tackle common issues by exploring how our personal experiences connect to larger challenges, so that we can design better solutions together. We’ll start out with an optional dinner the night before to catch up with each other, and the next morning, we’ll begin the Creative Assembly and use art, dialogue, and some fun activities over the course of the day.
