ASSITEJ CUBA 2024
Being in Cuba for ASSITEJ 2024 was an incredible opportunity to connect with the international TYA Community at large, to get inspired by the incredible work that is happening across the world and also to learn about the challenges that other artists from different countries and cultures face in their art making endeavors.
It was a validating and reaffirming experience that encourage us to keep making radically accessible and high quality theater for children and families!
I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to present “Expansive Access and the Outdoors in Theater For the Very Young and their Families” at the conference with Flying Leap Productions!
