Here follows the workshop weekend schedule for Alternative Worlds: The Andes and Asian America.
Overview
This workshop weekend is part of a project that aims to create two multidisciplinary collections of work and is open to anyone who identifies as Andean or Asian American.
While our coworking sessions and discussion groups are for project participants, our InDesign and Illustrator workshops are free and open to all; we invite you to join us!
If you do identify as Andean or Asian American, we also invite you to join our coworking and discussion groups to connect with fellow creatives, no prior signups or participation in the collections required (though it is highly enouraged!)
All of this information, Zoom links, and coworking sessions can be found in our Discord; we encourage you to join us there to connect with fellow participants!
Note: Eventbrite registration is not necessary; we've provided the Eventbrite option for convenience in case you'd like to get email notifications and the Zoom URL in your inbox at the time of the event.
For more details on this project and to sign up to participate, please read our Call for Submissions and fill out our participation form or talk to us on Discord!
