Offered in collaboration with Health Arts Society, this interactive, imaginative workshop invites participants to combine stories and movement prompted by relevant themes set to familiar music. The workshop often results in extended dynamic conversations full of laughter and sometimes tears as creative muscles and meaningful memories are activated. Many more important stories always follow.
