Upstander Workshops
In pre- and post- performance workshops, student groups are guided in thoughtful, safe, and collaborative ways to contextualize history and make contemporary connections. Many young people have not had the opportunity to creatively process information about the Holocaust, questions of diversity/bias, or feelings of inclusion/exclusion. Combining movement, writing, and dialogue, these workshops create an open space for young people to create their own expressive responses to difficult material in empowering, personal ways.
"When we read about the Holocaust in a textbook, we only understand it from a surface point of view. We only get the facts. But when I visualize in an artform that I understand, when I see the story portrayed through dance, it is devastating. I feel it."
- Madison, age 17
