Love To Love You Youth Workshop (Dec 2 & 4th, 2025)

We’re excited to invite you to Love to Love You, a creative storytelling and mixed media workshop led by teaching artist Mx. Tea (they/she). This workshop invites students to explore who they are through writing, voice, and creative reflection. 

In a space that welcomes every identity, students explore writing, storytelling, and public speaking to discover confidence and creative voice. Their final audio piece becomes both a personal archive and a threshold for growth.

Write and tell your story // Build confidence in your voice // Learn to edit and document your work // Create in a safe, inspiring space // Develop skills for school, art, and life.

The workshop will take place in person on Dec 2nd and Dec 4th at PhillyCAM, 699 Ranstead St. Philadelphia, PA 19106

No experience necessary, just bring a willingness to try new things and be yourself!

Free and open to students 13-18 years old.
