Every person has a story, and every person has experienced a journey—whether it has been an immigration journey across continents, or a story of migrating from one neighborhood to a neighborhood across town.
Join IMPACT Silver Spring, a community development organization, and Gandhi Brigade, a youth media and youth organizing non-profit, in this interactive workshop. Inspired by an event hosted by the Smithsonian, IMPACT Silver Spring, Gandhi Brigade, and community members in Silver Spring have been meeting regularly for the past 6 months to share stories and have conversations about immigration and migration. We would like to bring this experience to you through a workshop where each participant will become a storyteller, while also participating in a dialogue about immigration, migration, and home, and what these ideas mean to us personally and as a larger society.
The second part of storytelling is keeping the story alive. For those that choose to, we will also provide a mobile recording booth where participants can record their stories through video or audio.
