Adult Led

Session: 1 & 2

Level: Beginning

For: Both middle and high school students

Description: 

Your fave Saturday hangout folks are here to teach you how to be an educational speaker, use your experiences to advocate for yourself and others, and how to control your narrative! We combine explicit, direct instruction and film-writing techniques to teach you how to tell your story for any audience. When we're done, you'll have a personal bio draft and an invitation to take part in paid panelist opportunities.

About the Presenters

Wren Reeve is a local Santa Cruzian who spends most of their time advocating in their Queer and Disabled communities, geeking out over music, and hyperfixating on marine wildlife and comics. Ashlyn Adams is a community connector who goes hard for the culture, has seen a LOT of movies and TV shows, and would love to coach your basketball team.
