Festivals as Classrooms for Resilience: The Art of Mass Gatherings (Session 42.1)

Futures of Mass Gatherings

For an exploration into workable ideas, please join Matthew Ché Kowal of Majestic Collaborations for a quick and deep dive into this newly funded national project that creates a classroom within a festival that considers Safety, Resiliency and Equity best practices. 

In collaboration with Performing Arts Readiness + Denver Arts & Venues + dozens of other collaborators we invite you to think forward with us into enduring questions, like: 

• How can disaster/emergency response bend towards creative solutions 
• How can creatives bend towards being prepared to be disaster thinkers and doers
• How can we create curriculum together with local and national experts to skill share in an immersive, diverse and experiential learning environment?
