Artist-educators Joseph Cuillier and Shani Peters of The Black School led a participatory workshop using their Process Deck.
Shani Peters and Joseph Cuiller founders of the Black School shared the history of this socially engaged, community-based project and the new Process Deck that they generated to facilitate activist workshops with youth. The process deck is a tarot-style interactive methodology tool for brainstorming and designing creative activism projects. The cards are to be used in an art making capacity to help creatives, educators, and organizers explore how art can activate change on a local level. Through a series of questions and choices participants identify issues of primary significance to them, define the terms and context around that/those issues and design impactful projects to address them. Joseph and Shani encouraged students to explore the deck and consider how they might use the prompts and categories in their work.
