The Ancestors Project Community Workshop - FREE for ALL Seniors &amp; Companions! No Cultural Pass Required. Use the past to create in the present in this evolving community arts project based on the stories of ancestors who have inspired and guided us. Each participant is asked to bring with them a photograph* and story of an ancestor that is important to them. LFL facilitators will lead participants in theatre, visual art, and writing activities to bring their ancestors&#39; stories to life. No prior arts experience is needed for participation. LFL defines &quot;ancestor&quot; as anyone who has come before you who has informed in some way the person that you are. *If no photograph is available, feel free to bring a memento or other meaningful object connected to that ancestor.
