'Gestures Toward Justice' with Ashley Scroggins (Women's Saturday Series)

In this workshop, we will challenge ourselves to embrace character viewpoints that go beyond clichés and stereotypes. We will explore and interrogate the social influences on the characters we develop and take steps toward embracing purposeful and reflective play that supports generative experiences to inform future characters.
