On Growing up a Multi-Heritage Child: A Reflective and Creative Exploration
Saturday 5th July, 10am-4pm, The Engine Room, Tottenham Hale, London, N17 9FU.
This workshop, for multi-heritage BIPOC, will offer a safe and supportive space to explore BIPOC multi-heritage identities, gaining greater insight into the impact of our young experience, in the varied environments we grew up in. We’ll explore how significant others and wider cultures responded to us as a multi-heritage child, looking at the nuances of these responses. Internal and external oppression will be included and questioned in this vital area, to support anti-racist practice and inclusion.
Reflections on how our adult selves relate to our inner child will be facilitated. Pair work, small group exercises and large group sharing will form part of our journey. Creative means such as poetry, visualisations, drawings and a closing ritual will be used. The workshop will invite you to connect deeply with your multi-heritage identities, and through this lens, how it felt to grow up as a multi-heritage child.
​
This workshop is open to BIPOC therapy professionals and others in the caring professions, who have multi-heritage backgrounds.
