Being neurodivergent can be fun, strange, confusing, exhilarating, and heartbreaking…all within the same five minutes.
This workshop is designed for those who want to celebrate and vent all of the nuances of living with ADHD, autism, Tourette Syndrome, and others that fall under the neurodivergent umbrella. We’ll use both visual and written prompts to create our pieces and share them with one another.

During this 3-hour workshop, students will learn about Diary Films, a type of personal essay film that comes from the mid-century American Experimental movement. Students will write a personal essay or “diary entry,” and choose images that express the feelings and themes of their essay. This class will focus on the use of visual metaphor and how to express verbal ideas through figurative visual language.
