Dreaming as a Tool: a whimsical collage with flowers and glitter

Taught by Jac Michel



Community Workshop: Open to all – no Duke affiliation required!

Dreaming of a better world is a part of the solution!

In this workshop, we will explore the practice of DREAMING as the resistance through art and expression, tapping into our inner wisdom and joy. We’ll reflect on what it means to nurture ourselves intentionally and creatively as we enter a new season of possibilities. Together, we’ll discuss meaningful ways to invite more daydreaming into our lives with the help of phenomenal visual boards! Each participant will create their own unique board using images, colors, affirmations, and elements that reflect their desires, values, and dreams. This workshop gives us permission to create a new world for ourselves as both individuals and communities. This is a vibrant, empowering way to set intentions, honor your journey into radical existence, and celebrate the magic of who you are becoming.
