If you are working collaboratively on creative solutions to COVID crisis and recovery issues; if you are working to develop arts/culture-based equitable public engagement strategies that center accountability; if you are deepening your commitments to imaginative resident driven change; join us for a pay what you can workshop on partnership.

Join CPCP’s Rebeca Martínez and Michael Rohd for an introduction to Civic Practice; guided conversations you can participate in individually or as part of a project team; and a set of coaching sessions for project teams that will be shared live and as recorded case portraits afterwards. 

This Institute is recommended for anyone working in community development, public health, local government, housing, transit, planning AND the artists/designers/culture makers/heritage holders with whom you are collaborating on public good projects.

Come as a project team, come with colleagues, or come on your own.

Day One of this institute will focus on community-building and sharing frameworks and strategies grounded in the civic practice approach we at CPCP engage in and support. Day Two will be focused on teams and their specific projects.  If you are considering signing up independently with or without a project in mind, please connect with us via sojourn@sojourntheatre.org so we can discuss whether or not this Institute will be a good fit. You are not unwelcome- we just want to make sure that you will feel served if you choose to attend.

The institute hours will be split between whole group, breakout groups, pair work and solo work.

Registration is now live at Eventbrite.

The Institute will be pay what you can. There will be limited openings - all availability is on a first come, first serve basis.
