About the project

Finding Your Seat At The Table: Is a series of workshops that uses multiple disciplines to assist Cuyahoga County participants in securing the life that they envision.  Using S.T.E.A.M (Technology and Art ) our workshops will focus on three areas: Presentation (Public Speaking), General Communications (Writing) and the use of Technology (Basic Phone Use through Virtual/Remote Platforms). Through presentations, individuals will develop the skills and tools necessary to discover their voice. In our "Writing" workshop(s), individuals will increase their respective vocabulary, giving them the language to articulate their thoughts more precisely. And our final workshop, individuals living in the digital-divide, will increase comfort, knowledge, and abilities to use internet and additional web spaces, to become increasingly self-sufficient and therefore enhancing their quality of life

Why we‘re doing it

Prior to the COVID-19 turning the world upside down, there was a need for an initiative to assist individuals in understanding navigation of spaces, cultures and systems. Now more than ever, the need is magnified. We are intentional about using the "Artist and Technology Principles" in S.T.E.A.M to lead the way! The world has gone in some cases, remote vs in-person, online vs brick and mortar, and working from home vs entering a physical space of employment. New or enhanced skills are required, to "Find Your Seat At The Table,"
