Daring Greatly in Life & ART
Through a series of instructor led exercises, participants will learn what it means to 'dare greatly'. In this course they will understand the principles of shame, scarcity and vulnerability. Using their understanding of these tenants they will be shown how to identify themĀ Ā in their personal lives and ultimately: their art.
Using the tools of BrenĆØ Brown's text Daring Greatly- Directors will see how bringing their full selves to a process yields to the strongest art making.

Posted @withregram ā¢ @kimsaira Today is International Transgender Day of Visibility, a day to celebrate transgender and nonbinary people around the world. It is also a day for us cis-folks to stand up in solidarity and take action for trans folks. We are not equal until we are ALL equal.
āØShare, save, & swipe for a few things to do today, especially if youāre not transgender and would like to learn more about allyship.
āØPlease remember that although it is Transgender Day of Visibility, fighting for trans equality requires continuous action, especially during a time where Trans folks are being harmed by the current, transphobic, legislation.
āØAll of the slides are compiled & created by Schuyler Bailar (@PinkMantaRay). He is an amazing resource for transgender education, please make sure to follow him!
