Spring 2025 Workshops
Open workshops adapt and apply purposeful play activities that include improv, creative writing, oral storytelling, movement, and other arts-based activities to a variety of pedagogical challenges and opportunities.
This spring we will focus on “Serious Play” – using the arts to navigate sensitive topics and classroom challenges; “Improv for Writers – engaging playfully with AI” and “Embodied Pedagogy – exploring the relationship between learning and movement.” Dr. Mullenneaux also designs open workshops to fit the needs of participants, so include your specific interests when you register!
Participants do not need any arts background or talent, just curiosity and an open mind. Please Register under our Events or contact Nan directly at Nan.mullenneaux@duke.edu to register or with questions.
