This workshop, led by Chisao Hata, will begin a creative process to explore our personal and collective histories. These discoveries will seed and nurture upcoming work to be developed through 2027 and 2028.
WHAT WE CARRY Workshop
(based on the original work “What I Carry.” by Chisao Hata)
AUGUST 15, 2026
LOCATION: Historic Alberta House, 5131 NE 23rd Ave
TIME: 11-2pm

Participants will explore themes of personal cultural identity and their relationship to community and place through movement, writing, group/partner interactions and informal sharing. These include:

1) their personal generational histories

2) points of racial solidarity and connections

3) their personal immigration in/to America and the impacts historic racism and generational trauma have had in their lives.

These are examples of inquiry questions we will explore in the workshop;
1. What is one memory/story/ moment that captures or defines you today?
2. If you were to unpack your cultural history “trunk” what would be included?
3. What impact has generational connections had on your sense of self?
4. What and how have you intersected with others from communities of color in America?
5. Have you documented, archived or researched your ancestry and family histories?
