The Artivism of Environmental Healing Summer CAMP
The Artivism of Environmental Healing CAMPS
The Activism of Environmental Healing is a one or two-week youth-centered camp that unpacks the multi-purposeful collaborative effort of agricultural practices that foster healing, socio-explorative understanding, emotional balance, exploration, creativity, and sovereignty. Through centering the power of land as a form of resilience, resistance, community healing, accessibility, and arts empowerment as social activism, participants will learn sovereign and creative healing practices that promote whole person and social-emotional learning.
​
The camp includes topics of herbal medicine, crop growing, poem writing, meditation, water projects, murals, nature photography, composting, and more to promote creative education and healthy living. This focus will introduce students to learning the power of ancestral indigenous land and allow them to leave this two-week camp experience with a wholistic understanding of the foundational pathways that produce self-sustainment, community service, teamwork, social liberation, environmental justice, meditation, and skill development through the creative arts.
