Project Description
With support from the California Arts Council, TA’YER will produce and present “FY 2019–2020 YEAR 3 FOSTERING RESILIENCE COMMUNITY WORKSHOPS & PERFORMANCES.” This is a hands-on theater program entering its third year consisting of (8) free workshops and (8) pay-what-you-can short-play performances about the daily lives of day migrant workers, the struggles they face, the joy and laughter of individual and shared creativity. Workshops validate the right to express ourselves, dream, and prosper.
Organization Summary
The name of our organization, TA’YER, is a phonetic enunciation of the Spanish word taller, which means “workshop.” As the name implies, we develop new theater pieces through a workshop process. We educate and support adult immigrant communities to find their own voice: use their own words or adapting short dramatic texts to develop literacy, a sense of aesthetics, creativity and curiosity for learning and exploring.
