Anti-Racist Arts Educator Talks 6.9.21

This summer Arts Ed NJ will offer a 3 part series that will give arts educators throughout the state the opportunity to immerse themselves in important topics that students, teachers, and communities face. We aim to share information, insights, encourage group interaction, and personal reflection in order to explore the ways systemic racism impacts all of us. We hope to spark awareness into action by bringing together educators, thought leaders, and allies, as we collectively interrogate racial inequities, biases, and disparities in society and in our classrooms. Our intention is to raise awareness by creating spaces and opportunities for learning, along with a learning community to share ideas and strategies that will lead to an equitable and just society.

Session One: Foundations: Creating a Safe Space with Alysia Lee
Participants will get the chance to share about their perspective in the current environment and reflect on how their experiences have created their world view, and bring to light questions and concerns that they have faced in the school year. We will provide space for reflection, ideas, and opportunities to grow.
