Superheroes—Write Your Own Story!
A Family Hair Party with Urban Bush Women
Hair Parties are interactive workshops—combining conversation, guided movement, and excerpts from Urban Bush Women's Hair and Other Stories. Using hair as a lens through which to examine systemic racism in America, Urban Bush Women fosters bravery and risk-taking to unapologetically delve into conversations on race in the United States. This Hair Party will be a celebratory family space. Perfect for families with children ages 2 to 12 who are interested in sharing their own stories through collage, embodied storytelling, and guided movement, participants will explore new paths on the roads to equity and liberation!
