Call for Students: Imagine a Fearless Future with the Fearless Collective Workshop Series, May 2021
Join Shilo Shiv Suleman, artist and founder of Southeast Asia-based public art project Fearless Collective, as she guides our community in a series of virtual, immersive discovery workshops that reclaim self-representation for women and misrepresented communities.
The Fearless Futures workshops give students the opportunity to imagine together through the lens of a particular topic ways to improve their communities and themselves. Students will lean on their academic understanding and social awareness to develop potential, real-life projects that encourage innovation, togetherness, and well-being. These workshops are a safe space to self-reflect, express your creativity, and to collaborate with a diverse group of people who, like you, want a fearless future.
There are two interactive tracks that encourage participants to reimagine the components of their future world. Select a track and meet online with a small cohort of your peers to imagine creative solutions around the topics of Body + Identity or Power + Governance.
Applications are due by April 23, 2021 at 11:59pm.
