Visual Storytelling series @ Governors Island, Spring 2026

Visual Storytelling: Your Story, Your Brand. A design-driven professional development workshop series.

Over four hands-on sessions, you will learn how to shape your lived experience into a clear, compelling, and visually personal brand, one that speaks across industries and cultures. Using visual storytelling, personal data, and creative communication tools, you'll build a professional presence that is authentically yours.

No design experience needed. Our workshops are fully hands-on: Expect to work with your hands, cutting, arranging, and building with paper and materials. Every exercise is guided, approachable, and designed so that you can express yourself at your own pace, no matter your background with design or technology.

All four workshops take place on Governors Island, our home, and a creative residency space celebrating immigrant women artists. Come ready to create, connect, and be inspired by a community that shares your spirit.
