Building a Community
Narrative 4 launched in Santa Fe in a big way, reaching 100+ students and educators in our first-ever, large-scale training in the newly created southwest U.S. region.
It was a month of major firsts for Narrative 4’s newly-launched southwest region as we reached more than 100 students and educators during our first city-wide event AND first large-scale training session.
The theme was “Building Community and Connection,” and that is exactly what we did during two days in Santa Fe, October 27-28.
On day one, participants from across the city participated in a Story Exchange. On day two, students, teachers, and artists community wide came together for a facilitator training session. This first-of-its-kind event featured Jody Lefevers, artist and Dean of Students at Santa Fe Prep and Raashan Morris.
