Back by popular demand, Red Hot Workshops are free hands-on arts workshops in the gardens of Stevens Square-Loring Heights, facilitated by teaching artists.

These workshops are sign-up required and first-come-first-serve. Sign up here!

This workshop is a session of collective healing where participants will be invited to communicate through writing, conversation, and movement what is important to them today. Participants will then use these methods to recognize and build connective capacities by creating a solidarity movement pattern with each other.
