PVFA | Outside the Circle/Creatively Exploring Grief and Community/A SUMMER HAPPENING
The College of Performance, Visualization and Fine Arts would like to invite you to our Outside the Circle/Creatively Exploring Grief and Community/A SUMMER HAPPENING – MAY 7 – 9, 2025
What does it mean to you and to us all to grieve?
The circle is essential to and emblematic of community and connection across many Native American communities. Taking the circle as an organizing principle, we invite you to join us in exploring what it means to grieve individually and collectively, and how individuals and communities are shaped and reshaped through grief.
Where does grief live or move within the physical and social body?
Through drumming, small-group conversations, herbal tea-drinking, embodied workshops, our invited guests will invite participants to reflect upon, discuss, and embody the multi-faceted dimensions of grief and grieving.
What does grief make, activate, or manifest?
We ask participants to bring their unique lived experiences and distinct creative practices to Outside the Circle, and welcome you take part in the full event, or to come and go as you are able. This event is intended for participants 18 years of age and older.
Dates: MAY 7 – 9, 2025
