Are you an adult with disabilities who lives in a group home or has lost connection with peers from your day program? We designed this class for you! Together, we’ll explore the full kaleidoscope of the arts (theater, poetry, music, dance, and the visual arts). You’ll learn how to “paint the music”, how to have a “rhythm conversation”, and how to choreograph a “poem dance”, all while strengthening your creative voice. Join the Upstream Arts community online to connect with fellow adults with disabilities as we discover new ways to navigate our feelings and build healthy relationships, all while having fun! Join us on Zoom for weekly 1-hour sessions taught by a team of highly-accomplished Twin Cities-based professional actors, directors, playwrights, poets, choreographers, visual artists, and musicians.
