FREEDOM WRITING WORKSHOP WITH KRISTEN ADELE CALHOUN 
Imagination is key to our freedom.

Picture a world where Black people live with access to all of the resources, dignity and power we deserve. Who are you in this world?  What does it feel like? How did we get there?

In order to make this real we must first allow our imaginations to run wild with the possibilities of liberation. But for many of us, the grind of oppression has atrophied our ability to truly dream of new futures.
Join us for fun weekly writing sessions that ask – what does it mean to be Black and free? What is the world we want to build for ourselves and future generations? What steps must we take to make our dreams a reality?
Led by Kristen Adele Calhoun, 2020-2021 National Black Theatre I AM SOUL Playwright in Residence, this playful AfroFuturistic course will use writing prompts, movement, meditation and music to spark the imaginations of each participant in the name of our collective liberation.

Tuesday Nights from 5pm – 6pm
November 3rd – December 8th

This course is intentionally intergenerational and is designed for adults and children ages 12 and up.
Participants are strongly encouraged to join for all six sessions but are also welcome to drop-in.
Full six week course – $75
Drop in rate – $25 / session

Processes for women and men toRETURN TO THE THRONE, returning to owning the Queen and King within. This is a spiritual journey to healing and overcoming our collective hole in our soul from slavery that gave us all Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome. It is time to cut the chains that bind; the strongholds that suffocate us.

This journey is being offered to Groups, Individuals and to Couples.
I am a Conscious Channel, which means all of my being is used by The Divine to give you the message, wisdom and guidance you need. My gifts were first revealed at 8 yrs old when ancestors would come through in family emergencies. I “graduated” to Angels and Ascended Masters at 9, and to fully hearing God at 13 yrs old. I have been used to heal individuals, couples, families ever since. I have practiced meditation since 1982 and have studied Sufism, Kabbalah, Khemet and many other mystic traditions. I am a fierce Prayer Warrior who knows how to Conjure/call forth what we want to give birth to/manifest.
