GLIDE’s Leadership Academy, a collaboration with Skywatchers, graduated its second cohort of activist-leaders in July of this year. Each cohort completes a 16-week arts-based empowerment curriculum, and several performances focused on the social change. Group participants create the performances and projects to address the change they want to see in the community.
Graduates of both cohorts are meeting for a retreat in September to plan the groups’ next steps, while GLIDE and Skywatchers explore greater collaboration.
