Transformative Language Arts can be your way to make a living, follow your calling, and fill your life with meaning, connection, and even joy.

Join us for this two-hour interactive workshop to engage in conversing with your TLA calling — to add to or become core to your livelihood, deepen your art (whether writing, storytelling, spoken word, songwriting, or more), and grow your community.

We'll write and map what's calling at large and in particular, how to focus in on what the timing is right for now, and what next steps to consider. We'll also explore what self-care and a community ethic of supporting each other can look like for you and yours. Finally, there will be time to talk about your questions and possibilities.

This workshop is being offered as an event to benefit the TLA Network.

The TLA Network exists to support and promote individuals and organizations that use the spoken, written, or sung word as a tool for personal and community transformation.

The Transformative Language Arts Network (TLAN) is committed to diversity, equity and inclusion in our offerings, organization, and aspirations. Words have the power to question, subvert, and transform limiting cultural narratives as well as reinforce entrenched stories and stereotypes. The TLA Network wants to make clear that we celebrate and uplift conversations across identity and difference, whether rooted in race, religion, social class, ethnicity, disability, health, gender, sexual orientation, age, military service, and other identities. In the past we have responded to a lack of diversity by actively recruiting underrepresented groups to: present and keynote at the Power of Words conference; serve on the TLAN board; teach classes; and contribute to our publications. We will continue to look at ways to incorporate greater access and representation in all of our projects, not just through the power of words but through the specifics of our practices.
