This workshop invites young adults to create personal or collective totems using mixed media, symbols, textures, and forms. Drawing from the idea of totems as markers of identity, belonging, and protection, participants reflect on their own stories, values, and lived experiences – especially in relation to access, inclusion, and diversity.
