Race Workshops: Colorful Conversations
November 12th & 21st, December 12th & 19th
Do you ever feel stuck when your child asks questions about race?
You’re not alone. Many parents want to raise children who understand difference, race, and culture—but aren’t sure how to start these conversations or worry about saying the wrong thing.
Register for the full session (4 dates) or just a single drop-in!
Free to attend.
Workshop 4: Creating Together (December 19, 2025)
Transform our collective insights into art! We’ll collaborate on designing a vision for a future community project that reflects our learning and hopes for an anti-racist community. Whether you’ve attended previous sessions or this is your first, join us in creating something beautiful and meaningful through art and dialogue. All ideas and artistic abilities welcome, this is about imagination and collective dreaming.

Release to Reimagine
“The question is, should we try to change the rules to allow for more winners? or is it possible to subvert the game, maybe even stop playing, and imagine a social and economic system that doesn’t immeserate the masses to enrich the few?” – Ruha Benjamin
Release to Reimagine invites you into a liberatory space for reflection, somatic release, and creative dreaming.
