Workshops

Present a Workshop!

Workshops at SisterSpace are collaboratively built by the people attending the festival.

Our goal is an array of workshops as interesting and diverse as our attendees. In the past, SisterSpace attendees have led workshops on art making, bee keeping, body painting, car maintenance, coquitos, financial planning, happy relationships, hula hooping, lesbian health, salsa dancing, self-improvement, sexuality, sobriety, softball, ukelele playing, and yoga—to name just a few!

Who can lead a workshop? YOU CAN!

We’ve had workshop leaders who are national speakers—professionals in their field—and we’ve had many workshops led by women who are passionate about a topic and are willing to facilitate a group discussion even if they are not “experts.” Leading a workshop is open to all attendees who wish to volunteer their time.

We welcome you to share your passions and interests by facilitating a workshop.

Volunteering as a Workshop Presenter

All SisterSpace attendees, vendors, entertainers, and workers are welcome to submit a workshop proposal. You do not have to be a professional in your field. You just need a passion and a desire to facilitate a 50-minute discussion or activity with other women/nb AFAB folks.

Details:

Submission Deadline: July 31

Priority selection and scheduling will be given to those who submit their proposal by the deadline. NOTE: Workshop proposals submitted after the deadline will not be able to be included in the printed Festival program booklet.

Registration Deadline: August 10

If your workshop proposal is accepted, you must register and prepay in full by the deadline. Note: Early registration (by June 15) ensures you pay a lower price for festival admission. Final confirmation of your scheduled workshop will be sent after you register.
