Discovering an Origin Story or Creation Myth
What elements or connections frame how we see ourselves in the mirror? Everyone has an origin story. It can be real, fantastical, rooted in body, or rooted in myth. It can also be a combination of all these things as we think about connection to the universe and each other. In this 35 min workshop, we’ll look at poems by Tina Chang, Ada Limon, Joy Harjo, and Airea D. Mathews to discover where you begin. Participants will generate their own creation myths and origin stories.
