DESCRIPTION:To honor the International Day of Persons with Disabilities  (IDPD) on December 3rd\, Art and Culture Project joins the Disability Culture Activism Lab (DCAL) and Art Therapy Collective in hosting four art workshops this December\, including the in-person Fabric Dolls Workshop.  \n\n\n\nAs we enter the last month of 2023\, let’s take a moment to pause\, breathe\, reflect and nurture ourselves as a community. Facilitators will provide art materials and prompts for attendees. The goal is for participants to reflect on disability justice issues through art making and dialogues.Fabric Dolls Workshop: Gentle remembrance and grieving for loved ones \n\n\n\nLet’s take a moment and honor our disabled or Crip siblings who left this world too early in the disability community. Together\, participants and facilitators will make dolls made of yarn and fabric. Snacks and supplies provided. We encourage you to bring your stories of lost loved ones\, and fabrics and yarns that are important to you. \n\n\n\n\nRSVP Form for the Fabric Dolls Workshop\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Workshop Facilitators\n\n\n\nBrian “B” Randolph (they/them) is an art therapy graduate student from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC).
