Join the Stanford
Environmental Justice Working Group,
Earthtones Festival, and the
Beehive Design Collective's Callegory (California Allegory) Project for a half-day intensive sharing design-research methodology that advances EJ through art.
The event will take place on Friday, January 31 from 11:00a to 4:00p at the Stanford Educational Farm. Please come for all or part of the sessions listed below:
Part 1 (11:00 am - 1:30 pm) STORYTELLING SEMINAR: ART & DESIGN FOR ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE
Learn about the California Allegory Project (Callegory) design process: an interdisciplinary approach uniting artists, researchers, and organizers to create graphic images as a centerpiece for cross-cutting educational initiatives and advocacy campaigns. Includes lunch to follow.
Part 2 (2:00 - 4:00 pm) IMMERSIVE WORKSHOP: CREATING MINDMAPS AND VISUAL METAPHORS
Participate in a hands-on teaching workshop that invites students to engage the Callegory process—combining research, stories, and design for impact. Participants will learn how to do "metaphor pushups," a Beehive Collective methodology conducted through image ideation, mind maps, sketch prototypes, which we will try out without judgement!
Part 3 (4:30 - 6:30 pm) EJ COMMUNITY GATHERING & WELCOME BACK DINNER
We will gather the broader EJ community and workshop participants for our quarterly EJ Welcome Back pizza party and amazing conversation! For questions or to get involved, please contact Sibyl and Emily at the EJWG (sdiver@stanford.edu, empolk@stanford.edu), or Pearl and Miriam at Earthtones (pearlsr@stanford.edu, mirawan@stanford.edu).
