EXPERIENTIAL SPACE WORKSHOPS2:00-4:00pm
White Noise Collective Spirituality and Cultural AppropriationWhen white people practice yoga, Native American spirituality, Buddhist meditation, West African drumming, or other
spiritual practices from non-European cultures, what are the impacts? As Jarune Uwujaren points out in The Difference Between Cultural Exchange and Cultural Appropriation, “we have a responsibility to listen to people of marginalized
cultures, understand as much as possible the blatant and subtle ways in which their cultures have been appropriated and exploited, and educate ourselves enough to make informed choices when it comes to engaging with people of other cultures.” Coming from a stance of curiosity, this workshop is offered to develop a shared understanding of
cultural appropriation and its diverse impacts, directly informed by voices from Native and POC communities. 4:30-5:30pm
Alex Leach Accepting OneselfAccepting Oneself is about seeing that every part of you is perfectly okay just as it is. We all walk around with this
inner critic that tells us that we look wrong, say things wrong, and do things wrong. The lie of the inner critic is that if I could just be more like "x", then I will be worthy of love. But the answer isn't to strive to contort ourselves into being
more like "x". The answer is to discover who we truly are, and that we are already worthy of love. Participants will engage in exercises that will help them confront and transcend their inner critic, and exercises that practice the skill of
accepting oneself just as they are.

If you love Whole Earth Festival, you have to stop by Art Space! As it stands today, this space is an ode to the festival’s origins. The first festival in 1969 was coined an “Art Happening” with its existential purpose being to use art as a means of teaching the community about social, personal, and environmental wellness. This year, we’ve
hand selected a variety of pieces to display during the festival that we personally feel relate back to this original purpose and to this year’s festival theme: RAW. We will also
be hosting activities and artist-run workshops and presentations in our space throughout the festival weekend! If you happen to be walking by the Memorial Union, you might catch a glimpse of our Sculpture Garden, which is graciously provided by
John Natsoulas from his personal gallery downtown. Yes, the one with the dog. If you like what you see in our collection, make sure to stop by his gallery sometime for
more!

WEF HISTORY TENTA new WEF History/ Memorabilia/ Dona-
tion tent is located at the center circle on the middle aisle --
right in the heart of the Festival! Here
you can see some of the things collected by WEF's Archivists over the years, buy WEF memorabilia, make donations to
your favorite festival, plan reunions and
events to make WEF echo throughout the year, or kick back & chat with staff and KPers from years
past. All are welcome to visit; stay as long
as you like! Communications

being coordinated thru the old archi-
vist's eddressWholeE-arthFestival@g-
mail.com including signing up to staff the
tent!1:00-2:00pm
Joe Craven Intuitive ImprovisationIn this workshop, Joe will teach you how to make better music in the moment, jam with folks you’ve never
met, and/or say something different every time you take a solo. Show up “empty handed, open minded” for this class. It will help deepen your connection to spontaneity, movement and seeing the value of not being
attached to the outcome when letting your creative juices flow.
2:30-3:30pmAlex Leach Compassionate Communication
Compassionate Communication helps people engage in honest & authentic dialogue by creating a sense of safety and connection. By avoiding the debate of who is right and who is wrong, space is created for you
and I to simply share what is going on inside of ourselves. Empathy is the foundation of this kind of dialogue, and with practice we can hear even the ugliest messages with compassion. Participants will gain a deeper awareness of their inner experience, they will practice the skills needed to share that authentically
with others, and the skill of listening with compassion and empathy to difficult messages.
