Join us as international social change advocate, MacLeod guides

us into an exploration of ‘inde-script-able’ borders where we are

challenged with cultural difference and conflict. bring neglected

stories of personal significance, social dissonance and political

vision into a dynamic exploration as we dance, draw and write our way

into personal and global stories of cultural borders and collapsing

boundaries. We welcome diverse world views and cultural identities as

we create arts-based responses to cultural issues, enlivening our sense

of relatedness to meaningful social action. Join us for this innovative

workshop as we invent, improvise and imagine that we can re-write

current headlines and in-habit fragile spaces with sensitivity, dignity

and creativity.

From 5:30-6pm, will discuss and answer questions about the new

MAPS program in the Arts and Social change at the European Graduate

School, an exciting new post masters summer training program located in
