This is an uncertain time for all of us, but becoming a Detourist in uncharted territory can lead to unexpected discoveries to share with our community as artists striving to create a better world. Learn how to use your creativity, your five superhero allies, felt sensations, and your own unique gifts as individuals and artists to navigate any detour in life and foster connection at a time when “connection” has taken on a different meaning. Can we envision a world together where “detours” in life are everyday blessings? We’ll create this positive future together with exercises based on a Detourist’s Four Skills for Resilience: Creating Active Hope, Expressing Acts of Gratitude, Storytelling, and Creativity. We’ll break down each of these skills as active habits to create a positive future, and discuss how we’ve used the arts to give voice to each of these skills for resilience.
