Garcia guided a printmaking session to reflect on pre-colonial and Indigenous perspectives on masculinity to develop prints that can help imagine ways of repairing harm committed within a community and against one another. This workshop was designed to be intergenerational and was open to all members of the general public.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” background_animation=”none”][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]Supplies required for the workshop are listed below:
