Let’s Play: Connecting Through Spontaneous Games
A Free Workshop led by Bobbi Ausubel and Rosalie Giffoniello
Come join us for an afternoon of playful, creative activities ~ to get to know each other better and have fun. Let’s Play is a series of games allowing participants to let go of inhibitions and rediscover their sense of play. The improvisational style uses simple movement, spoken word and imagination, fostering camaraderie and connections with new people.
The improv games will also include activities that explore themes of gender and sexual orientation. All genders and sexual orientations are welcome!
