An Introduction
Use the following workshop videos to create new original works in poetry, photography, and painting to consider the following thematic prompts:
1) What do you want your future home to look like?
2) What are some of the ideas, images, and feelings that come to mind when thinking about your future home?
Create a Poem
Think of a quote, a saying, or an expression that has stayed with you over time. Let’s use this quote to inspire a new “Golden Shovel” poem.
Become a Photographer
All you need is a cell phone to document the world around you. Use the prompts from the video for creative inspiration.
