About Your Workshop!
This year, we are interested in having 2 tracks on the following topics:
1) Our Sounds / Our Selves: This track is dedicated to sharing different creative and musical skills we don’t necessarily get to inside our rock camp structure! For example, some past workshops that would fall under this track would be:
* Hip Hop Freestyle
* Loop Your Voice: Intro to Loop Pedal Technique and Vocal Improvisation
2) Our Philadelphia EcoSystem: This track is a space dedicated to critical thinking and discussion about gender, race, abilities, space, alternative/cultural histories--as it intersects with our local/global landscape. For example, some past workshops that would fall under this track would be:
* Gentrification in Philadelphia: Then & Now
* Rock n Roll was Invented by a Black Queer Woman
In general at GRP, we also think a lot about gender, cultural appropriation in music, displacement/gentrification, futures, healing, and ecosystems. We invite applicants to consider and tie these themes into their workshop proposal!
